Vídeo de queimada mostra que aquecimento global não existe
Publisher’s rating: ENGANOSO
The video shows a controlled burn in Alabama, not evidence that global warming does not exist. The review says the original footage was posted by CFM Fire Managers and taken out of context; controlled burning can be used to help prevent forest fires, though the review notes that it can also have negative impacts.

الإعلام الحربي اليمني ينشر مقطع للحظة إطلاق صاروخ بالستي على إسرائيل
Publisher’s rating: غير صحيح جزئيا
The review says the circulated footage was old: it had been posted in June as showing a Houthi missile launch at a ship in the Arabian Sea. It also says that, after the Houthis announced a new missile launch toward Israeli targets in Tel Aviv, their military media had not published footage of that launch as of the report. (S1: “المقطع قديم ونشر في يونيو الماضي على أنه لإطلاق الحوثيين صاروخ فرط صوتي اطلق عليه حاطم-2 على سفينة في البحر العربي”; “ولم ينشر الإعلام الحربي التابع للحوثيين أي مقطع للحظة إطلاق الصاروخ حتى وقت نشر التقرير”)

Publisher’s rating: False
The review found that the viral video was not from Manipur but showed an incident in Andhra Pradesh. It reports that the incident occurred on 29 August 2017 and that the video later went viral.

الجيش اليمني يعلن استعداده الكامل لتنفيذ عمليات عسكرية في غزة، وسيكون للطائرات الحربية المقاتلة في الجيش اليمني دورا بارزا
Publisher’s rating: غير صحيح جزئيا
The review says the aircraft video was old footage of an F-5 displayed at a Houthi celebration on September 21, 2023, and that the aircraft was outdated and unable to perform combat missions. It also says the statement about readiness to conduct military operations in Gaza was old, published in July, rather than recent.
Des images divulguées par l'armée de l'air israélienne prouvent que c'est l'armée israélienne qui a abattu ses propres citoyens avec des hélicoptères Apache le 7 octobre au festival de musique Nova.
Publisher’s rating: La vidéo montre une zone située à une dizaine de kilomètres du festival de musique. Les Forces de défense israéliennes ont publié ces images le 9 octobre 2023. Plusieurs indices permettent d'affirmer que les cibles visibles sur les images sont très probablement des terroristes du Hamas.
Enoch Burke, enseignant irlandais, a été arrêté pour avoir refusé d'utiliser le pronom « elle » pour un élève de sexe masculin.
Publisher’s rating: Enoch Burke a été arrêté pour avoir ignoré, à plusieurs occasions, une ordonnance d'un tribunal lui empêchant de se rendre sur les lieux de l'école où il était précédemment employé. L'affaire est certes née de son refus d'utiliser le bon pronom d'un·e élève, mais ce n'est pas pour cette raison spécifique qu'il a été incarcéré.
The review says Burke was imprisoned for repeatedly disobeying a court order barring him from the school, not specifically for refusing to use the student's chosen pronoun. The dispute began after he refused the school's request to use the student's chosen name and pronoun, citing his religious beliefs.
Rosie Jones has come top of a list of funniest British female comedians, followed by Eddie Izzard and Victoria Wood.
Publisher’s rating: It is unclear what the source of this claim is. One poster claimed that it came from a survey carried out by “Rankerz”. This is likely a reference to the website Ranker, but Ranker’s list of the funniest British female comedians features Rosie Jones in position 78 and does not feature Eddie Izzard at all.
