What FACTLY found
The video shared in the post shows an old incident that took place in Tamu town in Myanmar. In June 2022, a battalion of People Defence Forces (PDF) militant group in Tamu brutally assaulted a young woman and shot her to death under suspicion of her being a military informant. The video has nothing to do with the recent violence in Manipur.
