An Indian teenager jumped off a cliff because his parents refused to buy him an iPhone, and his parents fell to their deaths trying to save him.

Publisher’s rating: Misleading

The review says three family members died after falling from Khavdya Dongar cliff in Maharashtra on August 21, 2026, but police said the deaths were not caused by an iPhone dispute. It reports that the father fell while trying to pull his son to safety and that the mother went over the cliff moments later; the precise trigger remains unclear. [S1]

The video shows Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi saying, “Eighty per cent of rapes are caused by women. Rape happens in India, but rape does not happen in Bharat.”

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

FACTLY reports that the viral clip was edited: Gandhi was quoting controversial remarks attributed to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and former Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, not expressing them as his own. The review says the original footage was from a Congress event in Pune on 22 August 2026 and that the clip removed Gandhi’s attributions.
