A leaked NASA document called "Project Anchor" predicts that Earth will lose gravity for seven seconds on August 12, 2026.
Publisher’s rating: False
Fact Crescendo Sri Lanka reports that it found no evidence of a NASA document or project called “Project Anchor” and says NASA denied that Earth would lose gravity on August 12, 2026. The review explains that gravity cannot simply switch off and that gravitational waves cannot cancel Earth’s gravitational field.
The video shows the Rajasthan Police publicly parading the accused in the Sri Ganganagar minor kidnapping and gangrape case.
Publisher’s rating: FALSE
The review says the video is unrelated to the Sri Ganganagar case and has been online since March 2026. It identifies the footage as showing Gujarat Police parading 18 accused in Chanasma, Patan district, after their arrest over an alleged attack linked to a dispute over temple donations.

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

It concludes that the clips do not show civilians confronting Chinese Army personnel in Arunachal Pradesh.
"Following the American attack on the *Shahid Haqqani* in Bandar Abbas, Iran has just launched a retaliatory strike against highly classified American facilities in response to the U.S. attack on the *Shahid Haqqani* in Bandar Abbas".
Publisher’s rating: False
DW found that the video did not show a secret U.S. facility struck by Iran: it showed a market fire in St. Petersburg, Russia, in December. The review says the video had previously circulated with false claims about other attacks and geolocates the incident to the Pravoberezkny Market.
Transport Minister Bimal Rathnayake said that Aswesuma benefits removed from beneficiaries will have to be granted again when an election approaches.

The video shows people kissing during a “Cockroach Jantha Party” protest at Jantar Mantar.
Publisher’s rating: FALSE
The review says the video does not show the CJP protest at Jantar Mantar; it depicts JNU’s 2014 “Kiss of Love” campaign. It reports that the earliest version the reviewers found was shared in 2014, predating the 2026 CJP protests.
India’s passport ranking was 76th in 2014 and, under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, it declined to 125th in 2026.
Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING
FACTLY reports that India ranked 76th in Henley’s index in 2014 and 80th in 2026, not 125th. The 125th-place figure is from Global Citizen Solutions’ 2026 index, which uses a different methodology, so the two rankings are not directly comparable.

Publisher’s rating: False

It concludes that the claim is false.
