Claim: Picture is of 'Nkosilathi Ndlovu a victim of Zimbabwe's Gukurahundi'.
Fact-check: No, picture is not from Gukurahundi - FactCheckZW
Verdict: the claim that a picture of a young boy dragging a lifeless body is of nkosilathi ndlovu and his mother who was shot in 1983 during gukurahundi in zimbabwe is false. while there could be a nkosilathi ndlovu whose mother was indeed shot, this is not their picture. the picture is not from the current congo conflict or the beni massacres either. the picture is of a rwanda boy holding the body of his father who died of cholera at a refugee camp in the then zaire.
