*LONDON – Facebook suspends Myanmar military Chief from the social mediawebsite to prevent the spread of “hate and misinformation” after reviewingthe content.*
Facebook’s action means an essential blackout of the military’s mainchannel of public communication, with pages followed by millions of peoplein a country where the social media giant is virtually synonymous with theinternet.
The move places further pressure on the generals, coming hours after UnitedNations investigators said the army carried out mass killings and gangrapes of Muslim Rohingya with “genocidal intent”.
