Fact-Check

An investigation by the Rumor Scanner team found that the circulated video is not from Siberia. In reality, a scene from an anti-government corruption protest in the Serbian city of Belgrade has been circulated with this claim.

Upon investigation, a video published on March 15 of this year was found on an Instagram account named ‘Djordje’. The scene in this video matches the one being circulated.

The caption of the video states that it is an event in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia.

Additionally, another YouTube channel named ‘Den Sep’ has also claimed it to be a video of a protest in Belgrade, Serbia, that occurred on March 15, 2025.

Subsequently, following this lead and using relevant keyword searches, a report published on the CNN News website on March 15 of this year, titled “Over 100,000 people rally in massive anti-corruption protest against Serbian government,” revealed that an anti-government corruption protest took place in the Serbian city of Belgrade on March 15 of this year. This was seen as the culmination of a month-long student-led movement. Although it began peacefully, students later announced the end of the protest due to some clashes and security issues.

Therefore, it can be definitively stated that this is not a scene from any protest in Siberia.

Furthermore, no news of such a protest in Siberia has been found in any reliable media outlets recently.

Therefore, a scene from an anti-government corruption protest in Belgrade, Serbia, has been circulated with the claim of it being a protest in Siberia in support of Palestine; which is false.
