Dhaka, 01 June 2025 (Sunday): The article titled “Bangladesh to declare Cox’s Bazar to Bandarban area as a military operations zone” by Northeast News is a clear example of deliberate disinformation propagated by segments of the Indian media seeking to destabilize Bangladesh’s internal cohesion and undermine its armed forces.
The insinuation that the Bangladesh Army supports insurgent actors, is not only baseless but malicious. Such speculative reporting, devoid of evidence, reflects a broader agenda to sow discord and mislead the public.
The Bangladesh Army has always upheld the highest standards of professionalism and remains resolutely committed to protecting the nation’s sovereignty, integrity, and constitutional order. There will be no compromise on national interest—now or ever. This narrative is not journalism; it is part of a sustained smear campaign. Bangladesh stands united and aligned firmly in defence of its people and its territory.
