A CNN Reporter deliberately did a live coverage of military air strikes in Marawi City on Sunday which exposed the military forces whereabouts.
The Armed Forces of the Philippines have earlier requested to spread information about the location of our security forces.
"Let us not use our reports, especially on social media, to spread information about the location of out security forces. When we do this, we are not only endangering security forces, but also the civilians and vital installations that we are protecting." - Armed Forces of the Philippines appealed on Wednesday.
Gerg Cahiles, a CNN correspondent did a Facebook Live reporting an ongoing air attacks of AFP in Marawi City.
His live video garnered different reactions from its viewers, most are furious of why did the reporter had to do it real time.
Netizens reminded him that the AFP already plead to not do a live broadcast of any sort regarding their position and course of action. He said that by doing such thing, he is risking the lives of the soldiers.
Even asking CNN to fire the irresponsible reporter.
Careless reporting places the government's troops in critical and dangerous situations which compromises their locations and coordinates. Their efforts are wasted and lives of civilians are put in danger.
The video was already removed from their Facebook account and page.
Recently, a similar mistake and sabotage was done by Rappler when the news website released a transcript of phone conversations between US President Donald Trump and Philippine President Rodrigo last 29th of April.
The conversation transcript was leaked by Yellow infiltrators inside the Department of Foreign Affairs and such actions manifested dreadful betrayal in welfare of the whole nation.
"How can any head of state now talk to your President frankly, when his talk with the world’s most powerful head of state, who has his own strict protocols for confidentiality, was released to the world, word for word?" said by a high-ranked foreign diplomat.
Due to the leakage, the country's image and reputation has been damaged. It made the country a ridiculous spectacle stating the government cannot keep secrets.
