Cette vidéo montre un drone iranien qui s'est emmêlé dans des câbles électriques en Irak.
Publisher’s rating: Non, la vidéo en question est en ligne depuis février 2024 et précède donc la récente attaque de l'Iran contre Israël. De plus, les éléments disponibles indiquent que les images ont été tournées en Syrie, et non en Irak.
The review says the video predates the April 2024 Iran attack on Israel and that available evidence places its filming in Syria, not Iraq. It notes that the drone’s origin and destination could not be established with certainty, and that nothing proves it was an Iranian drone in Iraq.
The now-viral picture has been online since October 10, 2023, and is unrelated to the recent attack by Iran.
Publisher’s rating: Misleading
“Urgente. Miles de palestinos están celebrando en la Mezquita Al-Aqsa la gran operación de represalia lanzada por Irán contra los territorios ocupados por Israel mientras suenan las alarmas en Tel Aviv”, como muestra este video.
Publisher’s rating: Falso
El Detector reports that the video showed people gathered at Al-Aqsa but was not connected to Iran’s attack on Israel. The same recording was posted on April 5, 2024, before Iran launched missiles and drones at Israel on April 13.
عربستان در بیانیه‌ای به نقشش در رهگیری پرتابه‌های سپاه اشاره و از عبارت «خلیج فارس» استفاده کرد.

Sionistas Cobardes! Después que asesinan hombres, ancianos, mujeres y niños, corren como ratas a esconderse. Palestina Será Libre!
Publisher’s rating: Falso
The review found that the video accompanying the post does not show people fleeing an attack on Israel. It identifies the footage as a 2018 escalator accident in Rome involving CSKA Moscow football fans.
Palestijnen verzamelen bij de Al-Aqsamoskee om de aanval van Iran op Israël te vieren.
Publisher’s rating: De video dateert van 5 april 2024 en toont Palestijnen die Laylat al-Qadr vieren. De beelden predateren de Iraanse aanval op Israël van 13 op 14 april en staan er dus volledig los van.
The video shows Palestinians at Al-Aqsa celebrating Laylat al-Qadr, not Iran’s attack on Israel. The footage was shared on 5 April 2024, before the attack on the night of 13–14 April.
الخارجية البريطانية تحذر رعاياها على ضرورة الخروج من ليبيا متوقع حدوث حرب في ليبيا ان شاء الله خير"
Publisher’s rating: مضلل
The review says the claim is misleading: the UK had not issued a new warning for British nationals to leave Libya. It reports that the UK’s advice against travel to Libya had been in place since 2014, and that the UK embassy said there were no new updates to its travel advice for Libya.
Video toont een Iraanse drone die onderweg naar Israel kwam vast te zitten in electriciteitskabels in Irak.
Publisher’s rating: Nee, de video stond al twee maanden voor de recente Iraanse aanval op Israël online. Hoogstwaarschijnlijk komen de beelden ook niet uit Irak, maar uit het noordoosten van Syrië.
The video was posted on X on February 20, 2024, before the Iranian attack on Israel, so it could not show a drone involved in that attack. The drone’s owner and destination could not be verified, and the evidence points to it having been found in Syria rather than Iraq.
Die Medien schweigen über den Völkermord-Vorwurf gegen Deutschland.
Publisher’s rating: Die Behauptung, dass die Medien über die Völkermord-Vorwürfe gegen Deutschland schweigen, ist falsch. Das genaue Gegenteil ist richtig.
The review says the claim that media have been silent about genocide accusations against Germany is false, citing extensive coverage in Germany and internationally. It reports that Nicaragua filed its case at the International Court of Justice, where Germany faced allegations related to its arms supplies to Israel; the court had not yet ruled. “Im Gegensatz zur Behauptung in dem Facebook-Post hat die Einreichung der Klage gegen Deutschland nicht nur in der Bundesrepublik, sondern auf der ganzen Welt ein mediales Echo gefunden.” “In der Sache hat das Gericht bisher kein Urteil gesprochen.”
بررسی ادعاها درباره موفقیت یا شکست حمله موشکی به اسرائیل
Publisher’s rating: ادعاهای بزرگ‌ترین عملیات پهپادی جهان و بزرگ‌ترین عملیات موشکی جمهوری اسلامی که رسانه‌های جمهوری اسلامی در وصف این عملیات گفته‌اند، صحیح است اما این دوربردترین عملیات پهپادی نبوده زیرا پهپادها جایی در میانه راه ساقط شده‌اند و حمله زمستان گذشته سپاه به ادلب از امیدیه، رکورددار طولانی‌ترین حمله پهپادی جمهوری اسلامی است.
Cette vidéo montre les Palestiniens faire la fête à la mosquée Al-Aqsa après avoir appris la nouvelle de l'attaque de l'Iran contre Israël.
Publisher’s rating: Non, la vidéo diffusée sur les réseaux sociaux ne montre pas des Palestiniens fêtant l'attaque lancée par l'Iran sur Israël. La vidéo est antérieure à l'agression de Téhéran et illustre une célébration liée à la fin du ramadan.
The video, first posted in October 2023, depicts interception of Hamas rockets by Israel's Iron Dome. It does not feature any rockets fired by Iran.
Publisher’s rating: Misleading

Aeropuerto de Tel Aviv… Sálvese quien pueda…
Publisher’s rating: Falso
The review says the video does not show people fleeing at Tel Aviv airport; it shows crowds in the Paris metro during a 2019 public-transport strike. It identifies the footage using matching train markings and the RATP logo.
