Good morning and welcome to the live page where we bring you our work throughout the day fact-checking claims, verifying video, unpacking data and debunking disinformation.
Following yesterday’s attack at the airport in Niger’s capital Niamey, we’ve received satellite imagery showing damage to a military base that’s part of the complex. However, analysis of the imagery suggests the civilian side of the airport was not affected. We’ll bring you those images shortly.
We’re also looking at what satellite imagery shows construction and earthworks at one of the Iran’s main nuclear sites following last year’s bombing attack by the US. According to analysis by the US-based Institute for Science and International Security, activity at the Isfahan nuclear complex has “notably increased” in recent days.
Despite US President Donald Trump saying that his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin has agreed not to strike Ukraine’s cities for a week, attacks were reported overnight. We’re looking at video said to show the aftermath of a number of strikes last night.
We’ll bring you more on those stories shortly – and we’re also looking at some potential fact-checks from this morning’s broadcast interviews.
