Miscaptioned video showing ‘Muslim immigrants’ attack in France performed by stunt group – Full Fact

A video is circulating on social media with misleading claims it shows an attempted assault by “Muslim immigrants” on young women in France.

It has been shared over 2,100 times on X, formerly Twitter, and a screenshot of the video also appears on Facebook with the caption: “In France, a gang of Muslim immigrants tried to assault a group of young women.

“Little did they know what awaited them. Don’t mess with the French women!”

But the video does not show what is claimed. The original video was posted on Instagram in November 2023 in…

Picture of police kneeling in front of Muslim men is AI-generated – Full Fact

A picture appearing to show a number of police officers kneeling as though in prayer in front of a group of men in Islamic dress has been shared widely on Threads

What the post fails to mention, however, is that the image is AI-generated. Some of the comments in the thread appear to indicate that people believe it to be genuine. 

The same picture has also been shared widely on X (formerly Twitter), in the aftermath of violent disorder which took place across England and Northern Ireland following the fatal stabbing of three children in Southport on 29 July

Very quickly an incorrect name, “Ali Al-Shakati”, spread online, alongside claims he had recently come to the UK on a small boat, or was Muslim or Syrian.

In fact, the teenager charged in connection with…

Bulli Bai: India’s Muslim women again listed on app for ‘auction’ | Islamophobia News

After last July’s “Sulli Deals“, in which nearly 80 Muslim women were put up “for sale”, “Bulli Bai” was the second such attempt in less than a year.

“Both ‘Bulli’ and…
