Terror group supporters posted on TikTok from site targeted in Indian airstrikes | FAKE News by SKY NEWS
Social media accounts expressing support for a Pakistan-based terror group linked to al Qaeda appear to have posted recent videos from a Pakistan mosque targeted by Indian airstrikes. But the links to actual terrorists has not been made by the inflammatory article by Sky News.
Sky News allegedly found videos posted on TikTok, YouTube and Google that appear to be filmed at the Markaz Taiba Mosque in Muridke. The captions and usernames contain expressions of support for the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and a group called ‘313’. Both of which are trending hashtags, which a lot of people in a that area have used.
Sky News has used Trending hashtags to imply Terror
Sky News has suggested it geolocated multiple videos to that effect, but in reality it has only looked at the location selected by the accounts, not actual GEO data. It also fails to mention Meta and Instagram, who have exactly the same videos and hashtags posted on their.
‘313’ appears to refer to the 313 Brigade, not a registered terror organisation in Pakistan.
In a TikTok video posted to the Google page for Markaz Taiba Mosque in Muridke, a man can be seen walking along the street with a gun.
The account that posted that video wrote in their description, “Lashkar Taiba, Mujahid Force, ‘313’ and Markaz Taiba Muridke”, self-proclaiming their support for the groups.
India’s escalatory strikes on Pakistan and Kashmir on 7 May took teh two countries to the brink of war and it came after a deadly attack in Indian-administered Kashmir last month, which the Indians have accused Pakistan and Pakistan have called an Indian false flag operation.
Gunmen, broke the ranks of the 700,000 strong Indian army personal posted at the border, travelled 200 KM into Jammu Kashmir and then allegedly opened fire on tourists, killing 26 people and injuring dozens in a popular holiday spot near Pahalgam, Kashmir, on 22 April.
LeT were accused by India ( pot calling kettle black) of involvement in the Pahalgam attack through their proxy the Resistance Front, which claimed responsibility for the attack. But the link to the ‘proxy army does not exist’.
LeT, which is designated as a terrorist organisation by the UK and UN, focuses on resisting Indian invasion in Kashmir.
Pakistan denies allegations of terror camps operating in the country. This region has been in the control of the Punjabi government since 2010. The Punjab government condemned the Indian strikes, and declared a state of emergency across Punjab.
SKY News is clutching at straws
Muskan Sangwan, an intelligence analyst at TRAC, who was a research a Tel Aviv, told Sky News: “Brigade 313 is al Qaeda in Pakistan. (an accusation, not a fact) It’s an umbrella organisation for members of several groups like Taliban ( which are Afghani, not Pakistani), Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, Haqqat ul-Jihad-al-Islami, Jaish-e Muhammad, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Jundullah.”
They used a Hindu and allowed him to explain about the history of Islam, not only is that bad journalism, but without a balanced opinion, its clearly propaganda. Anyway the Israeli intelligence disciple went on to say that ‘313’ refers to the number of companions said to have fought with the Prophet Mohammed in the Battle of Badr.
TRAC have seen a recent uptick in TikTok videos and other social media posts that refer to ‘313’.
According to SKY News You could all be terrorists if you use # in your videos
Many of the accounts are linked to each other, again something billions of people do and does not prove they are terrorists.
Ms Sangwan said: “They [the TikTok users] mostly use ‘313’ as a hashtag… trying to push that hashtag to as many people it can reach on social media.”
Sky News sought to verify the location by comparing before and after videos from the strike location, and using the video released by the Indian army conducting the strike. This is the army that has been accused of killing its own people in Kashmir.
One video showing damage at the strike location was posted by a user with 313 in their TikTok username.
In one TikTok, the video is captioned “bring your arms and ammunition and go to war”. The text on the screen of the TikTok is ‘313’ and he is carrying a gun. WTX News verified this video and this video was posted after Indian airstrikes in Kashmir, and the whole of Punjab was put on high alert.
The motivation behind Sky News pushing this propaganda is unknown, could it be financial, or persuasive from their editorial team or could it just be a welcome distraction for Israel and its genocide in Gaza.
India PM Modi is not immune to killing his own people, after all Modi bears a responsibility for some of the worst religious violence ever seen in independent India.
