Publisher’s rating: صحيح
The review says the Taiz governor’s decision of 21 January 2026 to rename the 22 May Hall at Taiz University after Ali Salem al-Beidh was unlawful.

It also reports that the account managing the videos requested ₹40,000 but provided no verifiable details about the alleged victims or how donations would reach them.

Publisher’s rating: False
The review says the viral images originated from an account identifying itself as an AI-content creator and that an image-detection tool indicated the image was likely AI-generated. It also reports that Khalifa denied the rumor on January 20, 2026, writing, “guys I am dating a fool but it’s not mr bean.”
