Fact check: Viral video of Chinese fleeing Pakistan

Misinformation being spread after KU suicide bomber attack

A video is being forwarded in which people in PPE suits are seen standing at Karachi airport’s international flight check-in.

The text that is accompanying this video says: “Frightened Chinese leaving Pakistan from Karachi airport en mass bc our security forces have miserably failed to provide security to them.”

Aaj News contacted the director of the ASF who said that this video is not correct. The ASF does not speak on the record, however, right now the airport is undergoing renovations and flooring work is being done. This more than proves that the video could not have been recent.

A day ago a suicide bomber targeted Chinese teachers at the University of Karachi.
