Community chats are chats created specifically for Facebook groups. Note that they are not available to all groups (example: commerce groups) or people at this time.
Only admins and moderators can delete community chats in your Facebook group. Deleting a community chat will permanently delete the chat and all its content from both Facebook and Messenger. Note: Admins & Moderators chats can't be deleted.
