DISINFORMATION ALERT | Video falsely claims a reversal of the Philippines’ security alliances

The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) warns the public against a YouTube video currently circulating online that falsely claims a reversal of the Philippines’ security alliances. This video contains false information and commentary that do not reflect official policy or actions of the AFP or the Philippine government. This is a prevalent tactic used by disinformation agents to create authoritative-sounding but false narratives. Such materials are designed to mislead, sow confusion, and erode public trust in national institutions.

We urge the public to remain vigilant, be discerning, verify information only through official AFP and government channels, and refrain from sharing AI-generated content or unverified information from questionable sources.
