Fact Check: 2021 factory explosion in Lahore falsely shared as recent Peshawar mosque blast

India Today  

On January 30, a suspected suicide bomber in a mosque in Peshawar, Pakistan, killed at least 90 people and wounded 220 more. Sharing this 15-second clip, a Twitter user wrote on Twitter, "It's horrible, look at the fire of today's blast,” alongside hashtags like “PeshawarBlast”, “Peshawar”, and “PeshawarUnderAttack". According to a report in the Pakistani daily, Dawn, the powerful boiler blast at a beverage unit killed at least two people — one of them died instantly while the other was shifted to hospital with 50 per cent burns. In October 2021, this particular video went viral as serial blasts in Lahore, Pakistan. Thus, it is very clear that the video has no link to the recent Peshawar mosque blast.
