The video shows Muslim villagers attacking a police team that went to apprehend kidnap suspects in Motihari, Bihar.

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING

The review says the video shows an attack on police in Motihari on 30 October 2024, during an attempt to arrest the son of accused Shambhu Bhagat after two kidnapped girls were recovered. It reports that the FIR identified all the accused as Hindus, so the claim that Muslim villagers carried out the attack was misleading.

Dieses Schiff ist mit einer HAARP-Anlage ausgestattet und wurde vor den Überschwemmungen bei Valencia gesichtet.

Publisher’s rating: Bei dem Schiff handelt es sich um ein schwimmendes Kraftwerk eines türkischen Energiekonzerns. Das Video davon wurde einen Monat vor den Überschwemmungen in Valencia weit entfernt auf Gran Canaria gedreht. Das Schiff steht nicht in Zusammenhang mit dem US-Forschungsprogramm HAARP und vermuteten Wettermanipulationen.

The ship is a floating power plant operated by a Turkish energy company, and the video was filmed on Gran Canaria—not near Valencia—about a month before the floods. The review says the ship is unrelated to HAARP and suspected weather manipulation.

FACTLYHealth & medicine

A newspaper clipping that reports that when a patient understood the doctor’s prescription, the Medical Council cancelled the doctor’s certificate.

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

The clipping is not genuine news: it came from a Navbharat Times satirical article in the “HawaBaji” section, which publishes jokes and light-hearted content for entertainment. The article’s social-media disclaimer says its content is for readers’ enjoyment and should not be taken as Navbharat Times agreeing or disagreeing with it.
