Executive Summary
Social media users are claiming that Indian Army Chief General Dhiraj Seth dances with soldiers’ wives and attended a dance competition organised by the Border Security Force Wives Welfare Association (BWWA). CyberPeace Research found no credible sources to substantiate the viral claim. Our research revealed that the viral image is related to his visit to Nepal. According to reports, he travelled to Nepal on his first foreign visit after taking charge of the Indian Army, where he was welcomed by senior Nepal Army officials. During the visit, he was also scheduled to receive the honorary rank of General of the Nepal Army. However, his photograph is being linked to a dance video from an event organised by the Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF), accompanied by objectionable claims about him. Our research found no credible evidence confirming that General Dhiraj Seth attended the event or was associated with the activities shown in the video. Therefore, linking his photograph from the Nepal visit to the dance video is misleading.

Executive Summary
A video showing a large crowd disrespecting the Indian tricolor along with American and Israeli flags is being widely shared on social media. Users sharing the video claim that the incident recently took place in Iran's capital, Tehran, showcasing "Iran's hatred towards India." However, a fact-check done by the CyberPeace Research Wing has revealed that this claim is misleading. The viral video was not filmed in Iran, but rather during a procession in Karachi, Pakistan.
The Claim
A user on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) shared the video with the caption: "India’s biggest enemy is burning our flag and guess who is sitting silently? Iran is not our friend. Their hatred towards India is clearly visible, but our tricolor is being burnt in Iran." https://x.com/bhagwakrantivir/status/2071096021183246667 , https://archive.ph/6mGE8
Factcheck
Keyframes extracted from the viral video were searched using Google Lens. This led to an Instagram post containing the exact same footage. The caption of this post identified the location as Karachi, Pakistan, noting that the demonstration was held in support of Iran, during which flags of India, the US, and Israel were burnt.
https://www.instagram.com/reels/DaDLQO6obcK/
Further keyword searches led to the official Instagram account of the 'Imamia Students Organization Karachi'. A video uploaded on June 25, 2026, showed the same event captured from a different camera angle. According to the caption, the footage is from a '9th Muharram' procession in Karachi.
https://www.instagram.com/p/DaApSBfIpNQ/
To conclusively establish the location, Google Maps Street View was used to cross-reference the physical landmarks seen in the video.The visual elements perfectly match Mohammad Ali Jinnah Road in Karachi, Pakistan.A distinct blue building named 'Mid Town', visible in the viral video, matches the Google Street View imagery of the location.
Conclusion
The research confirms that the video showing the burning and desecration of the Indian national flag is from Karachi, Pakistan, and not Tehran, Iran. The social media claims linking this incident to Iran are false and contextually misleading.
Executive Summary
A fabricated graphic designed to look like a Dainik Jagran postcard is viral on social media. The viral post claims that Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a statement regarding his father, alleging that he was part of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's army and spied against the British. The post further claims that his father later surrendered on Mahatma Gandhi's advice and became a Gandhian. Research by the CyberPeace Research Wing has revealed that this claim is entirely fake and misleading. There is no record or evidence of PM Modi ever making such a statement, and the viral postcard has been digitally altered.
The Claim
An Instagram user shared the viral graphic claiming that PM Modi stated his father was associated with Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose's army, worked as a spy against the British, and later surrendered on Mahatma Gandhi's advice to become a follower of his ideology. https://www.instagram.com/reels/DZ7BAHdP5u , https://archive.ph/wip/7ajAK
Fact Check
A thorough Google keyword search was conducted using relevant terms, but no credible news reports or official sources were found to back up the viral claim.
During the research, the original, authentic postcard published by Dainik Jagran was located. The original post actually quoted PM Modi speaking about India's startup ecosystem. Today, 21st-century India is going through a massive phase of transformation. A startup revolution is taking place in India today. In this revolution, the youth of India, with a fresh mindset, are finding solutions to problems for the welfare of humanity." https://www.instagram.com/p/DZkRUY2n2hi/
Conclusion
The research confirms that Prime Minister Narendra Modi never made any statement linking his father to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose or Mahatma Gandhi's surrender advice. The viral image circulating on social media is morphed and edited to spread misinformation.
Executive Summary

The captions on both uploads explicitly stated that the footage was from a movie and web series shoot. Furthermore, a closer inspection of the videos revealed professional filmmaking equipment, such as a black flag and a skimmer, visible on the set. https://www.facebook.com/reel/2160248068089642
https://www.instagram.com/p/DaBE0gQglUF/
A targeted keyword search led to a YouTube video uploaded on June 20, 2026. The visuals in this video perfectly matched the viral footage, and the individuals seen in the viral clip could be spotted wearing the exact same clothes. "Regarding the video/photo being circulated on social media (Patna High School, Gardanibagh), it is clarified that this is part of an authorized film shooting, for which due permission was previously granted by the competent authority."
To verify further, official statements were checked. The Patna Police issued a formal press release on June 26, 2026, completely dismissing the viral rumors. https://x.com/PatnaPolice24x7/status/2070501501529960581
Conclusion
The evidence gathered confirms that there was no shooting incident at Patna High School. The viral video is behind-the-scenes footage from a pre-approved film production.

Social media users are circulating the video as a shameful incident and are also appealing for the return of his stolen passport and belongings so that he can safely return to his country. CyberPeace Research Wing research found that the viral story is completely false and fabricated. For verification, we first conducted a keyword-based search on Google, but did not find any credible news report or media coverage supporting such an incident. Had this event been true, it would have certainly been reported by mainstream media outlets.
Claim

Further, another Instagram user dipendrakiduniya also posted clarification on June 25, 2026. In the video, the same individual and his brother clearly deny the “Anderson” identity claim and confirm that the viral story is completely false. They state that he is an Indian labourer working at a brick kiln in Baghpat.
https://www.instagram.com/reels/DaAZgXtjaYI/
Conclusion
The viral claim that an Australian citizen named Anderson lost his passport and belongings in Agra and was forced to work at a brick kiln is completely false. The person seen in the video is a resident of Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh. The story circulating on social media is fabricated and misleading.
Executive Summary
A video linked to the FIFA World Cup 2026 is being widely shared on social media. The clip appears to show a match between Brazil and Argentina, with Neymar and Lionel Messi facing each other on the field. In the video, Messi is seen trying to stop Neymar from scoring, but Neymar dribbles past him and scores a goal. The footage is being circulated as a real moment from the ongoing FIFA World Cup. CyberPeace Research Wing research found the claim to be false. The video does not depict any real football match and was created using artificial intelligence (AI).
Claim
A Facebook user named “India Guru” shared the viral video on June 25, 2026, with the caption: "Neymar’s storm in the FIFA World Cup. Lionel Messi could only watch. Wow! What a moment… Brilliant." https://www.facebook.com/reel/993162133465919 , https://perma.cc/V8SA-Y3SE
Fact Check
To verify the claim, we searched relevant keywords on Google. However, we found no credible news reports related to the viral video or the claims being made alongside it. We also found no evidence that Brazil and Argentina had played a match against each other during the FIFA World Cup 2026. A closer examination of the footage revealed unusual movements in the legs and body positions of both players, which appeared unnatural and inconsistent with real match footage. These visual anomalies raised suspicions that the video had been generated using artificial intelligence. The video was then analyzed using the AI detection tool Hive Moderation, which indicated a nearly 99 percent probability that the content was AI-generated.
For additional verification, we also examined the clip using Undetectable AI, which similarly indicated a high likelihood that the video had been created using artificial intelligence.
Conclusion
Our research found that the viral claim linking the video to a FIFA World Cup 2026 match between Neymar and Lionel Messi is false. The footage is AI-generated and does not show a real football match.
Executive Summary
Two powerful earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 7.5 in magnitude struck Venezuela on June 24, 2026, within a span of one minute, causing widespread destruction. Hundreds of buildings were reportedly reduced to rubble. Against this backdrop, a video is being widely shared on social media showing two high-rise buildings colliding with each other before collapsing. Several users have claimed that the footage shows the aftermath of the recent earthquake in Venezuela. CyberPeace Research Wing team conducted a detailed research and found that the viral video is not authentic. The footage was generated using artificial intelligence and is being falsely shared as real visuals from the Venezuela earthquake.
Claim
A Facebook user, “Rana Yashwant,” shared the video on June 26, 2026, with the caption: "Venezuela: The high-rise buildings fell as if they were fast-moving train coaches. How long could they withstand such a powerful earthquake? Both collapsed face-first. What happened to the people? Who knows." https://www.facebook.com/reel/1036186612182534 ,https://perma.cc/98PE-DFKB
Fact Check
We first extracted several keyframes from the viral video and conducted reverse image searches using Google Lens. However, we found no credible news reports or evidence linking the footage to the recent earthquakes in Venezuela. A closer examination of the video revealed several anomalies. Despite the intense shaking and collision of the buildings, the windows and structural features remained unchanged throughout the footage. No visible deformation or damage appeared in the buildings before they collapsed, which is highly unrealistic and raised suspicions that the video had been generated using AI. To verify this, we analyzed the video using the AI detection tool detectvideo.ai. The results indicated a 73 percent probability that the footage was AI-generated.
Similarly, analysis conducted using Sightengine found a 99 percent probability that the video had been created using artificial intelligence.
Conclusion
Our research found the viral claim to be false. The video showing two buildings colliding and collapsing is not related to the recent earthquakes in Venezuela. The footage was generated using artificial intelligence and is being misleadingly shared as real disaster footage.
Executive Summary
A viral social media post claims that the recently released Epstein files reveal that Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Epstein Island more than 320 times. CyberPeace Research Wing research found that the claim is false. There is no evidence in the Epstein files suggesting that Prime Minister Modi visited Epstein Island over 320 times.
Claim:
An X user shared a viral graphic claiming that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had visited Epstein Island more than 320 times. https://x.com/Ramesh18498367/status/206501995913534715 , https://ghostarchive.org/archive/2V12W
Fact Check:
We first examined credible international media reports related to the Epstein files, particularly those mentioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi. During this process, we found a report published by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) in February 2026. The report mentioned that the names of the Prime Ministers of India and Malaysia appeared in certain documents linked to the Epstein files. However, it clarified that references to Prime Minister Modi were limited to emails discussing his 2017 visit to Israel. The emails reportedly contained comments made by Jeffrey Epstein regarding the Prime Minister’s Israel visit. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02-04/leaders-of-malaysia-india-named-in-epstein-files/106298458
We also reviewed reports published by several other international media organizations. None of them contained any information supporting the viral claim that Prime Minister Modi visited Epstein Island more than 320 times. The Government of India also issued a clarification regarding references to Prime Minister Modi in the Epstein files. The clarification stated that, apart from references to his 2017 Israel visit, the files contain no other mention of the Prime Minister. The government further described subsequent claims and speculation on the matter as baseless.
https://x.com/MEAIndia/status/2017598414733840649?s=20
Conclusion:
The viral claim that the Epstein files reveal Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Epstein Island more than 320 times is false. Available records, international media reports, and the Indian government's clarification do not support the claim.
Executive Summary
A video is being widely shared on social media claiming to show baggage handlers in India carelessly unloading passenger luggage from an aircraft cargo hold. The clip allegedly shows a handler ignoring standard procedures and throwing bags directly onto the tarmac instead of placing them on a motorized conveyor belt. CyberPeace Research Wing research found the video to be entirely fake. The clip has been generated using artificial intelligence (AI) and is being falsely shared as a real incident from India.
Claim
An X user, I.P. Singh (@IPSinghSp), shared the video on June 25, claiming it shows baggage handlers unloading luggage from an aircraft in India. The post criticized the alleged mishandling of passenger baggage and questioned aviation authorities over poor service standards.
The accompanying post read:
“When will the DGCA and the Civil Aviation Minister finally pay attention? Despite high airfares, this is the state of passengers’ luggage. The Ministry of Civil Aviation should learn from Japan and China how luggage should be handled.” https://x.com/IPSinghSp/status/2070164107551273109?s=20 , https://archive.ph/heiHA
Fact Check
A detailed analysis of the footage revealed multiple visual inconsistencies suggesting AI generation. Notably, even after the baggage handler seen initially tossing the luggage exits via the conveyor belt, bags continue to emerge from the cargo hold and fall onto the tarmac on their own. This physically impossible sequence strongly indicates digital manipulation. To verify these findings, the video was analyzed using the AI detection tool Hive Moderation. The results indicated that a significant portion of the footage was generated using artificial intelligence.
Conclusion
Our research confirms that the viral video is entirely fake. It has been generated using AI and is being misrepresented as a real incident from India involving baggage handling at an airport.
Executive Summary
A video is being widely shared on social media showing an Indian cargo vessel engulfed in flames. It is being claimed that the ship was carrying chemical weapons to Israel and was hit by a drone near the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Oman, after which it caught fire. CyberPeace Research Wing research found the claim to be misleading. The viral video does not show any such incident. Instead, it shows an Indian cargo vessel on fire, but in a completely different context unrelated to any drone strike or weapons shipment allegation.
Claim
The video circulating online is being shared with the claim that it shows an Indian cargo ship carrying chemical weapons to Israel, which was struck by a drone near the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Oman and subsequently caught fire. https://x.com/ThokaReturns/status/2070224570792251728 , https://x.com/ThokaReturns/status/2070224570792251728
FactCheck
A reverse image search of keyframes from the viral video led us to a Times of India post dated July 19, 2024, on X (formerly Twitter), which contained the same visuals. The report stated that a major fire broke out on a container cargo vessel approximately 102 nautical miles southwest of Goa, following which the Indian Coast Guard launched firefighting operations. A comparison between the news footage and the viral video confirmed that both refer to the same incident. https://x.com/timesofindia/status/1814352708473856175
We also found an India Today report on the incident, which stated that the vessel was travelling from Mundra to Colombo, Sri Lanka, when the fire broke out. The Indian Coast Guard immediately diverted one of its ships to respond to the distress call. https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/fire-breaks-out-container-cargo-merchant-vessel-off-goa-coast-rescue-ops-2569320-2024-07-19
Conclusion
Our research confirms that an old and unrelated video has been shared on social media as visuals of an Indian cargo vessel allegedly hit by a drone off the coast of Oman
Executive Summary
A video is being widely shared on social media showing a purported CRPF trooper accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government of corruption. In the video, the individual is also seen urging people to vote the BJP government out of power. CyberPeace Research Wing research found that the video was created using artificial intelligence (AI). There is no evidence that any CRPF personnel made such statements.
Claim
An Instagram user shared the viral video, claiming that a CRPF trooper was criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government over corruption allegations. The post link, archived link, and screenshot are provided below. https://www.instagram.com/reels/DZ_dbj_SNTf/ , https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/53998219?key=46c661b505ba61d19e7d9be97a17c273
FactCheck
A closer examination of the video revealed several inconsistencies. The name tag on the uniform displayed only “CRPF,” which does not match the standard naming format used on official CRPF uniforms. Additionally, several faces visible in the background appeared blurred and distorted, which are common indicators of AI-generated content. We also noticed a visible Grok watermark in the bottom-right corner of the viral clip, suggesting that the video may have been generated or modified using artificial intelligence. Further analysis was conducted using Hive Moderation’s AI detection tool, which indicated the presence of AI-generated or deepfake elements in the video.
To further verify the authenticity of the clip, we analyzed it using Deepfake-O-Meter. The tool indicated a probability of more than 95 percent that the video was generated using artificial intelligence.
Conclusion
The viral video purportedly showing a CRPF trooper criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP government is AI-generated. Multiple indicators, AI detection tools, and the clarification issued by the government’s PIB Fact Check confirm that the video is not authentic.
