A video in which a few people can be seen hitting each other is being shared on social media with a claim that people were fighting over food after fasting during Ramzan.
The video is being shared with the sarcastic Hindi caption, “रमज़ान में पूरे दिन भूखे रहने के बाद शाम को खाने के लिए शांति से एकदूसरे को आग्रह करते शांतिदूत..”
(English Translation: After being hungry all day in Ramzan, peace messengers urging each other to eat in the evening calmly.)
Here’s the link to the above post.
FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the post and found the claim to be misleading.
We extracted keyframes of the video and found that the same video was uploaded on YouTube on May 22, 2019, with the title, “Iftar in Madina 2019 | Before Iftar Fighting outside of Masjid e Nabi.”
The same video was also uploaded by The New Arab on Facebook on May 18, 2019. The caption of the post read, “Ramadan brawl as Saudi mobs fight over iftar meal outside mosque. A brawl erupted outside a mosque in the Saudi Arabian city of Medina, home to Islam’s third holiest site, between locals shortly before a public iftar gathering.”
Hence, from the above information, it is clear that the viral video is old and is being shared with a misleading claim.
