نشرت حسابات وصفحات على منصة إكس صورة ادعت أنها لإنفجارات خلفتها غارات شنها الطيران الأمريكي على مواقع حوثية في منطقتي النهدين والحفا مساء اليوم 9 نوفمبر 2024

Publisher’s rating: خاطئ

The review says the image shows explosions from Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon in early October, not recent U.S. strikes on Houthi sites in Sana’a. It also notes that a Houthi-affiliated news agency reported U.S.-British strikes on Sana’a without further details.

Publisher’s rating: Misleading

Fact Crescendo reports that all three photos used in the video dated to violence in Manipur between May and July 2023, rather than the recent Jiribam violence. It concludes that using them as images of the Jiribam incident was misleading.

قوات التحالف العربي تحاصر المنطقة العسكرية الأولى في سيئون، شرق حضرموت، بعد مقتل جنديين سعوديين على يد أحد جنود المنطقة أمس الجمعة

The review found that security forces from Wadi Hadramout—not Arab Coalition forces—deployed around the First Military Region and at Seiyun’s entrances after the shooting. It says there was no Coalition deployment or siege of the headquarters.

حقيقةWar & conflict

صورة لنقل جثامين جنود سعوديين قتلوا أمس الجمعة 8 نوفمبر في محافظة حضرموت، شرق اليمن

Publisher’s rating: مضلل

The review says the image is from September 2019, when the bodies of a Saudi officer and soldiers killed in Hadramout were transported from Seiyun Airport to Saudi Arabia. It therefore does not show bodies from the November 8, 2024 incident described in the claim. The review says the image’s earlier date was identified through a reverse-image search.
