FACT-CHECK<\/h2>\n

Alt News found that this video depicts a ‘real-scale aircraft hijacking simulation’, in other words, a drill. By looking at the comments below the video, we found an article published by a Mexican news site Vanguardia<\/em><\/a>. According to the report, the drill was conducted in an Interjet airline at Mexico’s Ciudad del Carmen International Airport.<\/p>\n

Earlier in October, Interjet had also put out a statement<\/a> in which they said that an aircraft of their company participated in a ‘real-scale simulation’ held at the airport on October 5.<\/p>\n

“Authorities from the three levels of government coordinated to implement the protocols for passenger rescue. In this way, the videos that circulate in social networks and where an Interjet plane is observed were recorded during this drill”, <\/em>reads the statement issued by the airline on October 7, 2019.<\/p>\n

The Mirror UK<\/em><\/a> reported that the airline was forced to release a statement saying videos circulating on social media of a ‘hijacking’ on one of its flights was actually a drill. The drill video was also reported by Mexican News channel Imagen Televisi\u00f3n<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Airport operator Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares, or ASA, a federal government-owned corporation, issued a clarification<\/a> about the video when it went viral earlier in October. The authorities thanked Interjet and its CEO William Shaw for “the facilities and great support granted for the real-scale simulation: Aircraft hijacking”. <\/em>On October 7, Shaw tweeted<\/a> about a meeting where results of the drill conducted by the airport of Ciudad del Carmen in coordination with ASA were analysed.<\/p>\n
