🚨𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊: 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐛𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐙𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐡𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐡 𝐌𝐮𝐣𝐚𝐡𝐢𝐝'𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚 The dark Afghan Taliban regime's spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid, has a documented pattern of spreading false propaganda by recycling old images to support fabricated claims. The images he shared were not recent. They had already been circulating online and were published by a random Facebook page in April 2022. Zabihullah Mujahid has now recycled the same old images in June 2026, falsely presenting them as evidence of a recent Pakistani airstrike. This is a deliberate attempt to mislead the public through recycled imagery.

When the BLA starts facing public condemnation, BYC steps in to provide cover. The internationally designated Indian backed terrorist organisation BLA has repeatedly targeted schools, colleges, hospitals, public transport and other facilities serving the people of Balochistan. These are not military targets, they are essential public facilities that ordinary Baloch citizens depend on. BYC has repeatedly been accused of acting as the BLA’s political cover, softening its image and deflecting criticism of its terrorist acts. If BYC is genuinely against terrorism, why did it not condemn the Noshki school attack yesterday? Instead it came forward to blame the state just as condemnation of the BLA was mounting. When the BLA starts facing public backlash, BYC steps in to shield it with a counter-narrative.

Fact Check: An Afghan propaganda account is falsely claiming that a Pakistani military drone strike killed civilians in Dera Ismail Khan. In reality, on 24 October 2026, Garah Guldad village, Tehsil Kulachi Dera Ismail Khan, these children were killed when a mortar shell fired by TTP terrorists struck a local house during an exchange of fire with security forces.

Fact Check: A misleading claim circulating on social media that Tauqeer Nazir, who killed an orphan child in Multan was spotted at an airport. In reality, the image is AI-generated. Official reports confirm that Tauqeer Nazir was killed in an encounter with the Crime Control Department (CCD) in Bahawalpur after escaping police custody.

Fact Check: Indian propaganda accounts are spreading a fake video against Pakistani forces. The video does not show Pakistani troops at all. It actually shows Egyptian soldiers captured in Sudan, and this same clip has been shared on social media since June 13, 2026. RAW accounts are pushing these cheap lies simply to target the Makkah Defence Agreement.

Fact Check: BYC-linked propaganda accounts are recirculating an old protest video with a false narrative about internet shutdowns in Balochistan. The footage actually shows a protest over restrictions on cross-border smuggling not an internet shutdown. The same misleading claim circulated in September and is now being recycled to spread misinformation.

Fact Check: An Indian propaganda account is circulating old footage to falsely claim that two police personnel have been abducted in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In reality, no police personnel were abducted. The individuals filmed themselves in an isolated area and then left, with no connection to the alleged abduction.

Fact Check: An Afghan propaganda account is recycling a 2022 video to falsely portray ANF personnel at Islamabad Airport as taking bribes. The footage was previously investigated and the allegations were found to be baseless. The incident involved routine questioning of a suspected individual not bribery.

Here comes another Dhurandhar story by TikTok terrorists of Indian-sponsored FAH terrorists. On 22 October the coward FAH tried to attack 3 x security forces posts which were beaten back successfully. More than 3 x FAH terrorists were sent to hell. Both terrorists shown in the post were killed, but the claim that they killed more than 10 Pakistani security personnel is fake. FAH after being defeated on ground are now following footsteps of their 7-0 masters, trying to win lost battle on social media.

Fact Check: An Afghan propaganda account is shamelessly recycling footage from Syria to falsely portray an attack on Pakistani soldiers by Baloch militants. The video dates back to March 2019 and was originally published by Syrian outlet Orient News which reported an explosion targeting a military convoy in Deir ez-Zor, Syria. The footage has no connection whatsoever to Pakistan or Balochistan. The original source link is provided in the comments for verification.

Fact Check: Indian propaganda accounts are circulating a misleading video falsely claiming that a mosque was demolished in Peshawar. The footage actually shows construction work at Darbar Ghamkol Sharif in Kohat and is unrelated to the alleged incident in Peshawar. By misrepresenting construction work as the demolition of a mosque, these accounts are distorting facts to exploit religious sentiments, provoke public outrage, and fuel religious hatred in Pakistan.

The ugly face of PTI foreign propaganda accounts are once again on display. They first spread fake news, amplified it across social media and then deleted the post. This is a systematic pattern, spread fake news to create panic and chaos, amplify it through social media and delete it once exposed. Such tactics reveal the deliberate use of disinformation to manipulate public opinion.

Adil Raja is pushing a misleading narrative by claiming that Iran trusts Qatar as a mediator rather than Field Marshal Asim Munir and that General Rezaei refused to meet the CDF. Field Marshal Asim Munir held meetings with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and General Mohsen Rezaei in Tehran, as reported by official Iranian sources. The social media accounts cited by Adil Raja are not credible sources of Iran’s official position and seem to be less Iranian and more Zionist-Pahlavian in their agenda.

PTI-linked and Afghan propaganda accounts are circulating old footage of US soldiers in Afghanistan, overdubbed with misleading audio to falsely portray them as Pakistani security personnel. The same video is being labelled online as showing Yemeni soldiers in some posts and Houthi rebels in others. In reality, the footage is from Afghanistan and shows American soldiers in US military uniforms, not personnel of the Pakistan Army or Federal Corps.

🚨 FACT CHECK: BYC and Internationally banned Indian backed terrorists organization BLA's propaganda accounts are circulating fake news claiming that a serving Pakistan Army officer named Nadir was abducted along the Khuzdar CPEC route. No Army officer was abducted, nor did any terrorist incident take place.

🚨 FACT CHECK: An Indian propaganda account falsely claims Pakistan sealed a 200-year-old Ram Temple to build a commercial complex. Reality: The building was sealed by authorities to prevent its sale after locals and members of the Hindu community protested over threats of demolition for commercial construction. Turning a property dispute into a religious persecution narrative is Indian propaganda at its finest.

The details mentioned in the post are fabricated and not true. Today in Rawalpindi cricket stadium Muhammed Farooq son of Muhammad Azam aged 50 years died due to cardiac arrest and shifted to Benazir Shaheed Hospital. The picture is of a retired army soldier Naik Farooq (Retired) who died due to electrocution at his home. He was not serving and neither was employed on protection duty. @NaveedSatti555 appears to be an amateur reporter who needs improvement in apprehension.

Fact Check: Afghan, Indian and PTI-linked propaganda accounts are falsely claiming that a Pakistani artillery gun exploded while firing along the Pakistan-Afghanistan international border. The circulating video shows an artillery gun, apparently a field howitzer being operated. It does not show an exploded gun or any casualties.

Fake News Alert ‼️ An anti-Pakistan propaganda account is spreading false and baseless claims of an attack on security forces in Sheri Khel, Lakki Marwat. In reality, no such incident has occurred in any area of Lakki Marwat. The claim is entirely false and fabricated.
