Myanmar soldier

Verified: A major news outlet reported an image of a Cambodian soldier’s corpse, which was actually a photo of a Myanmar soldier from an incident in 2023

Fake news was detected. A media outlet circulated an old image from 2023 showing the body of a Myanmar soldier in Shan State, falsely claiming it depicted a Cambodian soldier killed in a border clash between Thailand and Cambodia. The image had previously appeared on Reddit, and there is clear evidence that it originated from an entirely unrelated incident.
