One user on Facebook claims that a video shows a funeral procession for Iran's late surpeme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The video has been watched over 90,000 times and was shared with the same claim on several other social media platforms (TikTok, X, Instagram).
Publisher’s rating: False
DW found that the video shows the funeral of former Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine, not Khamenei’s. That funeral took place on February 23, 2025; as of the review’s Friday reference, Khamenei’s official funeral had not yet taken place.

Publisher’s rating: false
So a police jeep caused this accident. Look at the speed he is reversing on a national highway. No basic common sense with a large number of people travelling on a straight road. Why was the police jeep reversing unnecessarily? It feels like a deliberately caused incident to demean Vijay's reputation

The video shows an Iranian military general confessing that he betrayed Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, before dying by suicide during a live broadcast.
Publisher’s rating: Misleading
The review says the claim is unsupported and the footage is unrelated to an Iranian military official. It traces the same video to a 2024 post identifying the man as Zahir Amini, a Kurdish resident, and describing his death by suicide during an Instagram livestream.
The viral video shows an Iranian attack on the Burj Al Arab building in Dubai during the ongoing Middle East conflict
Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING
FACTLY says the video is unrelated to the recent conflict and shows a 2015 fire at the Abdul Naser building in Sharjah, not an Iranian attack on the Burj Al Arab. The review says reverse-image searches and comparison with news visuals tied the video to the Sharjah fire.
Sharing a video in a post on X with 2.9 million views at the time of writing, one user claims that it shows the capital of Iran: Teheran. He states that the "US began dropping 2,000-pound bombs" on March 4 and that the administration "still says this is not a war."
Publisher’s rating: Misleading
The video does show bombing in Tehran, but it was originally shared on March 1, so it cannot show events on March 4. The review says the footage does not establish whether 2,000-pound bombs were dropped on Tehran; it also notes that the administration had not formally declared war, although Trump called the actions “major combat operations.”

The 2015 Iran nuclear agreement “gave (Iran) the right to have top-of-the-line nuclear weapons.”
Publisher’s rating: False
Related reporting records Trump saying the Iran deal would have led to a “colossal arsenal” of nuclear weapons for Iran. The excerpt reports his claim but does not independently assess whether the agreement gave Iran that right.
