The information medium named "Kosova-Sot.info" published yesterday (December 14) an article titled "Sad: Stray dogs brutally attack a girl."
Hibrid.info has verified the facts and has confirmed that the title of this article is generalizing, as it does not clarify in which country the event occurred.
The news is clarified only in the content, more precisely in the headline of the article, which states that "This is the moment a pack of stray dogs attack and injure a 9-year-old girl in a city in Russia."
The information portal in question is registered in Kosovo (see here) and most of its readers are Albanian speakers (see here), therefore, as such, the title in question leaves room for misinformation among readers, making them think that it is about an event that occurred in Kosovo.
