The Bangladesh Fire Service and Civil Defence has clarified that it has not issued any official message regarding rising temperatures or related safety measures currently circulating on social media.

According to an official statement, a message claiming to outline precautionary steps during high temperatures-allegedly attributed to the Director General of Civil Defence — is being widely shared online.

The message mentions two specific periods — April 29 to May 12, 2026, and May 25 to June 4, 2026, as times of extreme heat along with suggested actions.

However, authorities have confirmed that the circulating message is not linked to FSCD in any way.

The department has urged the public not to be misled by such misinformation and to rely only on verified sources for updates and guidance.

Officials have further requested citizens to remain cautious and avoid spreading unverified information regarding weather conditions or safety instructions.
