False claims about changing anti-Covid measures

HIBRID

The dubious Albanian-language portal "onlinenews52.com" has published an article with a false claim that the curfew is expected to be lifted, as well as the wearing of masks as a result of anti-Covid measures.

Hibrid.info has verified the facts in this article, where it has been confirmed that the title is false, while the content is a completely different story.

The first part of the text contains an old announcement from the Basic Prosecution Office of Peja and Gjakova regarding the arrest of six (6) people for usury, published on September 16 of this year. While the last part of the text contains a false claim that the curfew will supposedly change from 12 midnight to 1 am.

After research conducted through search engines, hibrid.info has not found any new decisions to change anti-Covid measures.

Analyze:

The dubious portal "onlinenews52.com" used an old announcement from the Basic Prosecution of Peja and Gjakova, to which it attached a false claim, and then gave it a fabricated title that the curfew and mask-wearing were supposedly expected to be lifted.

After fact-checking analysis based on the work methodology, hibrid.info has assessed this article as "fake news".


Reasoning:

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.
