Evidence suggests that the video is more likely from Saudi Arabia and has been circulating online for several years. As such, claims tying it to recent events should be treated with skepticism, and efforts to accurately attribute the video to its original source remain ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<!DOCTYPE html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<html>\n\t\t\t\t\t<head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t\t\t.container {\n\t\t\t\t\t  border: 2px solid #000;\n\t\t\t\t\t  background-color: #eee;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 5px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  padding: 16px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin: 16px 0\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container::after {\n\t\t\t\t\t  content: \"\";\n\t\t\t\t\t  clear: both;\n\t\t\t\t\t  display: table;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t  float: left;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  border-radius: 50%;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t.container span {\n\t\t\t\t\t  font-size: 20px;\n\t\t\t\t\t  margin-right: 15px;\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\n\t\t\t\t\t@media (max-width: 500px) {\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  text-align: center;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t  .container img {\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  margin: auto;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  float: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  display: block;\n\t\t\t\t\t  }\n\t\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/head>\n\t\t\t\t\t<body>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Misleading.png\n\" alt=\"Avatar\" style=\"width:120px\">\n\t\t\t\t\t  <p><span>Title:<\/span>Viral Video of Camels Swept Away  Is NOT related to recent Dubai floods<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t  <strong>Fact Check By:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:info@factcrescendo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kalana Krishantha<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t\t  <p><strong>Result:<\/strong> Misleading<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/body>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/html>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?phone=94771514696&#038;text=Please%20send%20your%20query:%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2481\" src=\"http:\/\/srilanka.factcrescendo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Whats-app-sri-lanka-new.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/figure>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe to our WhatsApp Channel The April 16 Dubai,UAE&nbsp; floods have become a focal point of discussion across social media platforms, generating widespread attention.
