New Delhi explosion: Old, out-of-context images mislead online
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
The Indian government says it's treating the explosion outside the capital's historic Red Fort as a "terrorist incident", after at least 12 people were killed and scores more wounded.

It's a move often seen during tragedies due to panic and in a bid to drum up engagement. Vedika Bahl explains in Truth or Fake.
