BHRN monitors and documents hate speech and propaganda news from the military during the current political situation on a daily basis. This monthly report is based on the monitoring of the accounts of the military junta and its alliances, which are intended to spread hate speech. For the September report, we daily monitored 17 Facebook Groups, 59 Facebook Accounts, 19 Telegram Channels, and 4 Printed Media sources.
