Canada's self-styled "Freedom Convoy" protest, which began in January 2022 in the country's west, was launched in opposition to requirements that truckers be vaccinated or test and isolate when crossing the US-Canada border. It has inspired similar rallies in other parts of the world, including in the United States and France.

 

But a reverse image search on Google shows that the clip of the trucks with the Brazilian flags was posted on YouTube in September 2021 – well before the Canadian protest began.

 

The video shared in September implies that the rally was related to 2021 protests in support of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, although it does not mention who shot it, nor where or when it was filmed. AFP contacted the owner of the YouTube channel for additional information on the clip's origins but did not receive a response by the time of publication.

 

Brazilian local media organization Aos Fatos published an article in early September that said the footage was recorded in May.

 

The video shows trucks bearing the logo of Brazilian agricultural firm ID AgronegĂłcio. AFP contacted the company for comment but did not receive a response.

 

A keyword search on Twitter however shows that footage of the same trucks circulated online as early as May 14.

A request by a group of high school girls to wear the hijab in class has snowballed into dueling protests between Hindu and Muslim students in India, deepening religious polarization as regional elections approach.

 

Debate over the hijab in schools took off last month after students at a pre-university college in Karnataka state’s Udupi district began protesting a rule barring them from wearing the Muslim head covering in classrooms.

 

In late January, the girls petitioned the state’s high court, challenging the restrictions. But protests quickly spread across the state, as more educational institutions began banning Muslim students from wearing the hijab. Hindu activists have staged counterprotests, demanding that the saffron shawl — a Hindu religious symbol — be allowed in schools.
