Original review summary

The review found that posts portraying assorted videos and an image as scenes from recent UAE and Gulf flooding were misleading: some footage was old or unrelated, and the Burj Khalifa image was AI-generated. It also notes that real flooding affected the region, including Dubai’s airport.[S1]

Additional context

The review identifies footage from November 2023 and July 2019 among the clips falsely presented as current Dubai flooding. [S1]
