A TikTok account named "mtrks25" published a video yesterday (December 5) featuring a military drone.
The caption attached to the video claims that this military drone will be donated to Kosovo, without specifying the source of these donations.
But hibrid.info has not found any evidence or accurate sources that confirm the claim.

After research and verification by hibrid.info, the same video material was found published on TikTok, on May 27 of this year, by an account named "military_drones" (see here).
Hibrid.info has researched the Facebook page of the Ministry of Defense. In the announcements of this ministry there is no news that confirms the claim of this account (see here).
While using the search engine, "Google", the latest information found in relation to the claim is an article that tells about the meeting of Prime Minister Albin Kurti with the director of the company that produces drones Bayraktar (see here).
It was emphasized at the meeting that new opportunities for cooperation were discussed, but the issue of any possible donation was not raised.

Rating:
The "Fake News" rating is given to media reports that are entirely the product of a medium that itself contains factually incorrect claims or information.
Content that is considered fake news can be reliably determined to have been created and distributed with the intent to misinform the public, i.e., to present a claim that is completely false as fact.
