The source for this news is which is the official media account of city of Dalian so it's not fake news.
However, flight cancellations could be the result of numerous reasons. The article suggested covid as the reason. Granted it's unusual, but we currently don't have enough info to entertain any serious talks of a potential coup.
What info is enough to entertain something as ridiculous as a potential coup?
Also, this is the top headline on Baidu right now. Coup going splendidly well.
