Thread: Day two of online misinformation about the Israel-Hamas conflict

This video, viewed 1.3 million times, falsely claims to show senior Israeli generals captured by Hamas. It actually shows the arrest of Karabakh separatist leaders by Azerbaijan's security service.

Here's the thread highlighting misinformation from the first day of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Please DM or email me any videos, images or posts you come across that might be misleading.
This video of the spokesman of Hamas's al-Qassam Brigades, viewed 1.3 million times and widely shared today, is unrelated to current conflict.

The video is from 2014, not now.

Thread: Online misinformation is rampant following the escalation of violence between Israel and Hamas today.

This video of a tower block in Gaza being hit by a missile is from May 2021, not today. It was captured live during a BBC Arabic broadcast at the time.

This video of a house in Gaza being destroyed by a strike is genuine, but it's actually from May of this year, and not from the fresh escalation in hostilities today.

Thread: You may have seen viral posts that Olena Zelenska, President Zelensky's wife, spent $1.1m on Cartier jewellery during the couple's recent visit to the US.

Let's find out why those posts are false, and examine how pro-Kremlin disinformation of this kind travels online.
Image
Image
The claim first appeared in a 30 September YouTube video by an obscure channel.

In a series of Instagram stories, a woman claims to be a former Cartier employee, who was apparently sacked because Zelenska didn't like her. She then unveils a $1.1m receipt in Zelenska's name.
Image
Image
The alleged former Cartier employee's Instagram appears to be ".jeanette".

Head over to Instagram and you'll see the account has no posts, no followers, and no following. That should immediately make you suspicious. gorgeous.bb

Thread: Viral misinformation about the French riots

This video of several cars falling from a multi-storey car park is from the set of the action film Fast & Furious 8, and unrelated to the current French riots.

It was filmed in 2016 on Prospect Avenue East in Cleveland, Ohio.





This viral image, shared on Twitter and Instagram, falsely claims to show French protesters capturing a police van.

The image is from the set of the 2022 French film Athena. A video of the scene can be found on YouTube.

Community Notes have been added to some Twitter posts.

A headline claiming French protesters are targeting police with US rifles smuggled out of Ukraine has been shared on Telegram and Twitter by pro-Kremlin users.

There's no evidence for the claim. The image is taken from a 2022 workshop for trophy hunters in Hauts-de-France.

As the unprecedented infighting between Wagner and the Russian military escalates, expect false and misleading claims to appear online.

There's currently no evidence of Belarusian President Lukashenko boarding a private jet or Russian officials fleeing Moscow.
I'll be compiling viral misinformation, including videos, images and online claims, about the armed mutiny involving the Wagner group and the Russian military in this thread.

Please flag any suspicious claims you see via DM (open) or email (in my bio).
Seeing plenty of evidence-free claims about the CIA or Nato having organised the mutiny in Russia.

The rift between Wagner's head Prigozhin and Russian Defence Minister Shoigu about the invasion of Ukraine is well-documented, and has been intensifying for months.

THREAD: Viral videos posted in the last few days claim military vehicles have been unusually spotted around the US.

Most are linked to National Guard annual trainings, some are linked to drills in other countries, one is linked to an upcoming presidential visit. ImageImageImageImage
This video, posted by a notorious conspiracy account with Twitter Blue subscription, claims to show tanks being transported in the US.

The video shows Canadian LAV 6 armoured vehicles being transported to Quebec by rail after a military exercise. ImageImage
This video, viewed six million times, claims to show "military landing" in California.

In fact, that's a Marines helicopter used to transport White House staff and security detail ahead of Joe Biden's visit to California next week. ImageImageImage
