Emerging story
A Facebook user posted a video to his profile, claiming it shows students falling from a building during a protest against the Moroccan Minister of Education's recent decisions.
The video has received over a hundred views and has been shared and reposted numerous times.
Misbar’s Analysis
Misbar conducted an investigation into the claim and discovered that the video in circulation was out of date.
The video has absolutely nothing to do with the current political situation in Morocco. Bolivian filmmakers shot the video, which was widely disseminated online in March of 2021.
Many Moroccan students and teachers protested against the Ministry of Education's new requirements for passing the "Teaching Exam" last month.
