  • AFP's fact-check service debunks misinformation spread online. Here are some of our recent fact-checks: An article shared on Facebook claimed that Black Lives Matter issued a set of rules for white people who join the protests sparked by the police killing of George Floyd. Black Lives Matter, however, denied issuing any such guidelines and warned of disinformation campaigns aimed at discrediting the movement. A photo of a banner displaying the words "FIGHT TO WIN" was shared thousands of times on Facebook and Twitter alongside a claim it was erected by China in the Indian territory of Ladakh. The photo circulated online in June 2020 as tensions rose in Ladakh, which is situated close to the India-China border. The claim is false. The photo has in fact circulated in reports since October 2012 about a banner installed by the Indian Army in Ladakh. Multiple posts shared repeatedly on Facebook claimed that a Google application programming interface had automatically enrolled Android users in Australia in COVIDSafe, the government's COVID-19 contact tracing app. In fact, a cybersecurity expert and the Australian government said that COVIDSafe cannot operate without being installed and Android users can choose whether to download the app. A photo was shared hundreds of times in multiple posts on Facebook and Twitter alongside claims it was taken during the "Spanish flu" pandemic between 1918 and 1920. The photo, however, has circulated in reports about fashion trends earlier in the 20th century. Süddeutsche Zeitung Photo, the German photo agency that published the photo, told AFP the photo shows "nose veil" fashion in 1913 following the Balkan war. An image which appeared to show a Nigerian politician receiving medical attention was shared hundreds of times in multiple Facebook posts alongside claims that it shows the politician was hospitalised after a recent court ruling removed the national chairman of his political party. The photo, however, in fact shows the politician donating blood in June 2015. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. afp.
