A video is being shared on social media with the claim that Muslims set fire to the French embassy in Sudan. It is being suggested that the embassy was set ablaze in retaliation for the cartoons of Prophet Muhammad shown by French teacher Samuel Paty in his class on freedom of speech. The teacher was beheaded by an offended Moscow-born teenager in suburban Paris on October 16.<\/p>\n

Old video\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

When we performed a reverse image search of a frame from this clip, we found the original source on YouTube from September 2012<\/a>. The Arabic description of the video reads, ” \u0641\u064a\u062f\u064a\u0648\u0627 \u0625\u0642\u062a\u062d\u0627\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0641\u0627\u0631\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0645\u0631\u064a\u0643\u064a\u0629 \u0641\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0648\u062f\u0627\u0646\u2026 .\u0623\u0643\u0634\u0646 .” This roughly translates to, “A video of the attack on the American Embassy in Sudan.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A subsequent keyword search led us to media reports from September 2012 stating that various foreign embassies in Sudan had been attacked. As reported by Al Jazeera on September 15, 2012<\/a>, violent protests in Tunisia, Yemen, Sudan and elsewhere targeted the American, British and German embassies. This was in response to an ‘anti-Islamic’ scene in an American movie trailer. The protesters claimed that the video insulted Muhammed. Parts of the opening scenes of Al Jazeera’s video report match the visuals from the viral video.\"\"<\/p>\n

We also noticed the viral clip was part of a CNN story dated September 14, 2012. The report stated that the protesters seen here were storming the German Embassy in Khartoum, Sudan.<\/p>\n
