  • AFP's fact-checking service debunks misinformation spread online. Here are some of our recent articles: A photo that claimed to show Myanmar's civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi being detained during the military coup on February 1, 2021 has been shared tens of thousands of times on Facebook. The claim is false: the image is actually an AFP photo of Aung San Suu Kyi attending the funeral of her political party's former chairman in 2017. A Facebook post claims that the second wave of Covid-19 in South Africa was caused by people wearing masks rather than the coronavirus pathogen itself. The post relies on a video that purportedly simulates a carbon dioxide test, but experts dismissed the demonstration as inaccurate, reaffirming that masks are safe to wear and remain a key preventative measure against the disease. The latest Covid-19 surge in the country was caused by a new variant of the coronavirus. An image supposedly showing Rihanna holding the national flag of Pakistan has circulated online after the pop star tweeted her support for protesting farmers in India. But the image, which was shared tens of thousands of times, was doctored: the original photo actually shows Rihanna holding a West Indies flag at a cricket match in 2019. A video of a man crying in fear while a nurse attempts to give him an injection has been viewed tens of thousands of times in multiple Facebook, Twitter and YouTube posts alongside a claim that it shows Thailand's health minister receiving the Covid-19 vaccine. The claim is false. The clip in fact shows a nurse trying to give a man in China an injection and it has circulated in reports since February 2018. In the clip, the nurse and the man can be heard speaking Mandarin. Facebook posts claim that former president Donald Trump has formed a new political organization called the "Patriot Party", providing a Federal Election Commission (FEC) document as evidence. This is false: a fundraising committee by that name has been registered with the FEC, but Trump's team says neither he nor his campaign have ties to it. u.afp.com/U5Pq u.afp.com/SAsecondwave u.afp.com/RihannaFlag u.afp.com/ChinaInjection u.afp.com/UiF3 Afp.
