The claim
The video shows the 2025 bus crash near Madinah, Saudi Arabia, in which Indian Umrah pilgrims lost their lives.
Original review summary
FACTLY reports that the video does not show the 2025 Madinah bus accident; it identifies the footage as showing a 2017 fuel-tanker crash near Abha. The review says the video’s visuals match 2017 media reports and do not match footage of the pilgrims’ bus accident.[S1]
