Instead, it originates from planned demolitions by Chinese authorities in 2020 and 2021. These demolitions occurred in various cities across China for reasons such as illegal construction, abandonment, or financial collapse of developers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ghost Cities in China:<\/strong> The collapsing buildings in the video were part of &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/allthatsinteresting.com\/chinese-ghost-cities\">ghost cities<\/a>&#8221; developments in China. These are large-scale construction projects that were either never completed or occupied, often due to changes in housing demand or financial issues faced by developers. When these projects are left unfinished or constructed illegally, authorities may choose to demolish them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Specific Incidents:<\/strong> The video includes footage of particular incidents, such as the collapse of buildings in southern China&#8217;s Hainan province in Lingao County on October 30, 2020, and in Kunming, south China, on August 27, 2021. Local authorities demolished these buildings for various reasons, including illegal construction and abandonment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"15 buildings in China get demolished simultaneously | USA TODAY\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Om6b0_ffyFQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Verification Sources:<\/strong> The footage was verified using InVID Verify and reverse image searches.

A feature article published by an Australian media outlet can be read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news.com.au\/finance\/business\/other-industries\/crazy-viral-video-of-buildings-collapsing-in-china-exposes-worrying-truth\/news-story\/7058eed4723277e54f6df5c61e429411\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tectonics.caltech.edu\/taiwan\/regional.htm\">Taiwan, located at the convergence of tectonic plates, is frequently subjected to earthquakes,<\/a> with the recent ones predominantly affecting rural areas. However, amidst reports of exaggerated impacts, it&#8217;s important to clarify that while buildings swayed in various parts of the country, the damage remained minimal during the April 22,23 earthquakes, and there were no significant disruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow us and stay up to date with our latest fact checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/factcrescendosl\/\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a><strong> | <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/factcrescendosl\"><strong>Twitter<\/strong><\/a><strong> | <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/factcrescendo_sl\/\"><strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a><strong> | <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqBwgKMODMpgswyNe-Aw\"><strong>Google News<\/strong><\/a><strong> | <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@factcrescendosl\"><strong>TikTok<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, the online video compilation, purportedly showing buildings collapsing due to the recent earthquakes in Taiwan, is misleading.
