Claim: A video warns of a gang of 25 members brutally killing people at midnight.
Fact-check: A clipped video is shared with a false claim of a gang of 25 killing people - FACTLY
Verdict: the photos featured in the viral video are from an incident on 24 june 2023, where eight members of the same family were attacked in the kishani area of mainpuri, resulting in six deaths. the attacker was reportedly a family member who shot himself after the murders. further, the audio in the video is sourced from a 2019 news report by a local channel in uttar pradesh and has been misrepresented. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
