Facebook takes down Myanmar military page as protests rage against coup

Following the use of violence against pro-democracy protesters in Myanmar by the military, Facebook has deleted the main page of the Tatmadaw, another name for the country’s military.

Al Jazeera quoted a representative for Facebook as saying on Sunday that the page of the military’s True News Information Team Page was taken down for “repeated violations of our community standards prohibiting incitement of violence and coordinating harm”.
