The Army Chief’s viral video of the meeting with the delegation of United States Congressmen is fake, using the voice of the Army Chief while visiting China in 2023.

Social Media viral video:

Nowadays, a video revolving around General Asim Munir has gone viral on social media. The video showed General Asim Munir speaking to a delegation of US Congressmen. It was shared by multiple users on platform X. Many users supported Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) based on their past posts. The audio in the video was not from that meeting. In fact, it came from an entirely different event. The audio was originally from the meeting in China in April 2023.

The original meeting:

General Asim Munir met with the US delegation of congressmen on Sunday. In this meeting, they talked about regional security ties and defense cooperation. Moreover, they also talk about the US tariffs imposed on Pakistani exports.

The dubbed clip:

On Monday, a 30-second video clip went viral. The video was authentic, but the audio used in the video was not. The voice that users heard was lifted directly from General Munir’s April 2023 meeting in China with Wang Yi. This audio was dubbed over the silent footage shared by the official Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) account. A misleading clip is mocking the army chief and questioning his style of speaking.

Fact-checkers step in:

A thorough fact-check was carried out. Multiple tools were used to determine if the video had been tampered with or if artificial intelligence was involved. Attestiv.ai flagged the clip with a 42% suspicion rating. Hive Moderation stated that it was unlikely to be AI-generated. Deepware found no signs of tampering. These tools confirmed the video itself wasn’t edited or artificially altered. But the audio overlay made it misleading. Fact-checkers traced the original audio to a meeting in April 2023 by using reverse image search and keyword tracking.
