  • A video showing waves flooding a beach is being shared on social media with a claim that it shows a tsunami in Turkey, which was rocked by strong earthquakes on 6 and 7 February. How did we find out?: We divided the viral video into multiple keyframes using InVID, a video verification extension on Google Chrome. One such search result led us to a video on YouTube shared on 13 March 2017. It mentioned that the video showed the Durban beachfront being flooded by massive waves. Taking a cue from this, we looked for more details about the incident. South African news portal The Citizen published an article on 12 March 2017, carrying a screenshot of the viral video. It mentioned that a cyclone off the coast of Madagascar had caused a storm along Durban's North Beach, after which the beach was closed by the authorities. Local media also reported on the "mini-tsunami" in 2017, carrying visuals of the viral video. Conclusion: The video dates back to March 2017 and shows a beach in Durban, South Africa being flooded by waves. (Not convinced of a post or information you came across online and want it verified?
