Doctored Video Of Foreign Secy Speaking On Govt Move To Reveal Names Of Soldiers Killed In Op Sindoor Viral As Real
Fact
- A frame-by-frame analysis revealed visual inconsistencies, including a gun appearing abruptly in the woman’s hand without any natural transition.
- The motorcycle emits an unusually large and unnatural plume of smoke as it accelerates, suggesting synthetic visual generation.
- These anomalies raised doubts about the authenticity of the footage.
- The video was analysed using multiple AI detection tools, which consistently identified it as AI-generated:
Hive Moderation: 99.9% likelihood of AI-generated/deepfake content.
Resemble AI: Flagged the media as containing deepfake content.
Sightengine: Reported a 99% likelihood that the screengrab was AI-generated.
IsItAI: Found the extracted still to be AI-generated with a 99% confidence.
