The entire Chinese missile will not fall, but only parts of it

HIBRID

Several Kosovo portals have published articles about the Chinese missile, which has gone out of control and its remains are expected to fall to the surface of the earth this weekend.

The headlines of these articles claim that a Chinese missile is expected to fall to Earth, while the text states that it is the remains of the missile.

However, some portals have not indicated in either the headlines or the text that it is about the fall of some parts of the rocket, and not its complete fall.

Even credible international media claim that some parts of the rocket will return to Earth. In the article published by the BBC, which was quoted by several local (Kosovar) portals, it is written that "Parts of a Chinese rocket are expected to fall back to Earth in an uncontrolled manner this weekend."

"businessinsider.com" also wrote about the fall of some parts of the rocket. The article of this medium states that "Somewhere on Earth, rocket parts could fall this weekend as the runaway spacecraft disintegrates in the atmosphere."

Analyze:

So, as can be seen from the fact check, the entire Chinese rocket will not return to Earth, since parts of it have burned up. So only some parts of this rocket can return to Earth.

None of the headlines on these Kosovo portals accurately mention the fall of parts of this missile, but instead claim that the missile is expected to fall to the ground in its entirety.

After fact-checking analysis, hibrid.info assesses these articles as "misinformation".


Reasoning:

A “Disinformation” rating is given to media reporting that contains a “mix” of inaccurate sources or even half-truthful content. This rating will also address reports that have incorrect attributions or headlines that do not reflect the text in terms of information accuracy.
