schema:text	A video showing things falling down from the shelves due to a tremor caused by a strong earthquake is going viral on social media as a video from Tajikistan. An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.8 hit Tajikistan on Thursday, 23 February. Who shared it?: Along with social media users, news media outlet, Moneycontrol, also shared the video with the same claim. An archive can be seen here. (Source: Money Control/Screenshot) How did we find out the truth?: We ran a reverse image search on some of the keyframes of the video and came across a YouTube video from 2021. The video was uploaded by a Turkish public broadcaster, TRT World Now, a verified news channel on YouTube. The clip was shared on 13 February 2021 with a title that said that this visual is from an earthquake that hit Fukushima, Japan.

The report stated that an earthquake with magnitude of 7.1 hit off Fukushima prefecture in northeastern Japan, causing blackouts in over 800,000 households.
