Cette vidéo montre la défense aérienne iranienne repousser les missiles israéliens au dessus du Khouzistan.

Publisher’s rating: Non, cette vidéo n'est pas en lien avec l'échange de tirs récent entre l'Iran et Israël. Elle date du 25 août 2024 et montre la riposte israélienne à des attaques aériennes sur son territoire menées par le Hezbollah libanais.

The review says the video does not show Iranian air defenses responding to Israeli strikes in Khuzestan. It identifies the footage as showing Israel’s response to Hezbollah’s aerial attack on Israel on August 25, 2024, and says it circulated two months before the October 26 strikes on Iran.

Монгол цэргүүд, Хойд Солонгосын цэргүүдтэй хамтран ОХУ-д туслахаар Украины дайнд оролцоно

Publisher’s rating: Төөрөгдүүлсэн

The review says South Korea’s National Intelligence Service and journalist Natalia Gumenyuk did not mention Mongolia sending troops: “Монгол Улсаас цэрэг илгээж байгаа тухай огт дурдаагүй байна.” It says the reports instead concerned North Korean troops possibly fighting in Ukraine while posing as people of Mongolian appearance or Mongolian ethnicity: “Хойд Солонгосоос дайчлагдсан цэргүүд ОХУ дахь монгол төрхтэй эсвэл Монгол угсаатны дүрд хувиран Украины дайнд байлдах боломжтой талаар мэдэгдсэн байна.”

هل فرضت لجنة متابعة الوقود ضرائب على الأجانب لتعبئة الوقود في سبها؟

Publisher’s rating: كاذب

The review says the committee did not impose conditions on foreign residents refueling their cars. It reports that the review found no official announcement of taxes or a residence requirement in the official pages it checked. [S1: “لجنة متابعة توزيع الوقود لم تفرض أي شروط لتعبئة وقود السيارات على الأجانب المٌقيمين.”; “وتبيّن عدم وجود تصريح أو خبر رسمي بقرار فرض الضرائب على تعبئة الوقود للأجانب أو اشتراط تحديد الإقامة.”]

PM Narendra Modi was missing at the 16th BRICS Summit.

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING

The review says the viral video showed External Affairs Minister Jaishankar with heads of delegations on 24 October 2024, not that Modi was absent from the summit. It reports that Modi attended the summit in Kazan on 22–23 October 2024 and that Jaishankar represented India at the BRICS Plus meet after Modi returned to India.
