  • Fact Check: 2021 earthquake video shared as recent and linked to Iran's alleged nuke tests India Today Fact Check found that the viral video is old and has been online since November 2021. Listen to Story India Today Fact Check The viral video of the earthquake is old and has been online since November 2021. A 4.8-magnitude earthquake struck Iran's Semnan province on November 3 as Israel braces for another Iranian attack. Amid this, a video going viral shows trucks parked on the road shaking during an earthquake in a deserted area. Those sharing the video linked it to Iran's alleged nuclear tests. An X user wrote, “Just in: Earthquakes in Iran as trucks shake on the side of the road and dust rises from the mountains. Nuke tests?” Its archive can be seen here. India Today Fact Check found that the viral video is old and has been online since November 2021. Our Probe A reverse image search led us to a November 2021 CNN report containing the viral video’s screengrab. As per the report, an earthquake of magnitude 6.3 shook Iran on November 14, 2021. This proves that the viral video is not recent. We also found a TRT WorldNow video report dated November 14, 2021, that shows the moment when a powerful earthquake struck southern Iran, near the port of Bandar Abbas. The quake, measuring a magnitude of 6.5, prompted residents to flee their homes. At least 27 people were injured and one died in this earthquake. Then-Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi reportedly ordered local authorities to focus on rescue and relief operations. On November 1, news organisations quoted Kamal Kharrazi, an adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying that Iran can produce nuclear weapons and is prepared to change its policies on using them. Back in October, several media reports noted there were speculations about Iran conducting covert nuclear tests after a moderate earthquake struck both Iran and Israel on the evening of October 5. Thus, it is clear that a 2021 earthquake video is being linked to recent tremors in Iran.
