An image has been published on several pages and profiles on social networks that depicts an alleged front page of the Serbian newspaper "Blic", dated August 8, 2026, claiming that this is the front page of the newspaper after the incident that occurred in the Kosovo Parliament. (here, here, here)
The published front page claims that the newspaper "Blic" reported on the front page about the incident during the session of the Kosovo Assembly, where the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo (AAK) MP, Time Kadrijaj, threw eggs at the acting Prime Minister, Albin Kurti.
The image was distributed as an authentic Serbian newspaper front page and used to create the impression that this was the main news item published by "Blic" on August 8, 2026.
After verifying the facts, the image turns out to have been generated with artificial intelligence.
What is known?
This content was originally published on TikTok by the account @22ss564, and then it was distributed by Facebook pages and accounts.
Hibrid.info has verified the claim through research on the official website. Blic.rs, as well as comparing the alleged content with the publications of this media.
The verification results that the front page published on social networks does not match the real front page of "Blic" dated August 8, 2026. (here)
Official website of "Blic" contains publications dated August 8, 2026 related to the event with a title like the fabricated front page, but the front page distributed on social networks is not found in the authentic materials of the newspaper and does not match the content published by the medium.
The image has also been verified with artificial intelligence-generated detection tools which suggest that this image is 99% likely to have been generated by artificial intelligence.
Meanwhile, the incident depicted in the manipulated image actually occurred on August 8, 2026. During a session of the Kosovo Assembly, MP Time Kadrijaj threw eggs at Albin Kurti, following the latter's speech regarding the need for more time to continue political negotiations. The incident caused the session to be interrupted.
Analyze
The case presents a fake front page of a real media outlet, using the name, logo and graphic elements of the Serbian newspaper "Blic" to give the image the appearance of an authentic source.
The manipulation becomes more convincing because it is related to an event that actually happened. So, the event is true, but the front page attributed to "Blic" is false.
Verification of the archive and publications of "Blic" shows that the claim about the authenticity of this front page does not hold up and that it was generated with artificial intelligence.
Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info considers this claim to be "fraud".
