The X Media platform published a video it claimed was recent, showing a player assaulting a referee during a football match.
Frame-by-frame tracing and reverse image search showed that the circulating video is not recent. The scene comes from a match between the Muadamiyah and Nabk clubs in the Syrian First Division league, played on 11 February 2021.
Why is this claim misleading?
False context: An old clip from 2021 was recirculated with a misleading claim that it documents a recent event.
