  • AFP's fact-check service debunks misinformation spread online. Here are some of our recent fact-checks: Facebook posts featuring screenshots of tables from a World Bank-linked website have been shared alongside a claim that they prove countries were purchasing Covid-19 test kits in 2018. The claim is false. The tables actually list the imports and exports of medical devices that existed in 2018 and which were classified as "Covid-19 products" in April 2020 because of their use in fighting the pandemic, according to the World Bank. A video viewed millions of times has been shared alongside claims that it shows US President Donald Trump "meandering" and "disoriented" on the White House South Lawn. The clip, however, has been deceptively edited. A longer version of the footage shows Trump waiting for his wife Melania before pointing out a puddle to her, after which they walk together toward the presidential helicopter. An image has been shared hundreds of times on Facebook alongside claims that it shows a man who was sentenced to death in Syria for preaching the gospel. The claims are false. The picture in fact shows Majid Kavousifar, an Iranian man who was convicted of assassinating a judge in Iran. Footage of a man assaulting a young woman has been viewed thousands of times in multiple posts on Facebook and Twitter alongside a claim it shows a Hindu woman being attacked in the Indian state of Kerala, where Hindus are a minority. The claim is false. This video has circulated online since 2017 in reports about a Hindu man assaulting his girlfriend in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Census data also shows that Hindus are not a minority in Kerala. A video has been viewed hundreds of times in multiple posts on Facebook and Twitter published in August 2020 alongside a claim it shows the aftermath of a tank driving through a crowd of protesters in the US city of Portland. In fact, the video shows a traffic accident in August 2020 in southern Brazil. afp
