The video does not show authentic footage of the impact of the floods in Assam.

A video is being shared on the internet, claiming to show the current flood situation in Assam.

Is it true?: No, the video is AI-generated and does not show an authentic clip of the Assam floods.

How did we find out?: We ran a reverse image search on the video using Google Lens and could not find any credible sources sharing it.

• Following this, we ran the video through Hive Moderation, an AI-detection tool which flagged the video as more than 95 percent likely to be AI-generated.

• While watching the video, we observed some irregularities.

• The legs of the people seen in the video look peculiar and do not look natural.

• In the video, we also see a house being submerged. However, there is no reaction from the person sitting on the roof of the house.

Conclusion: The video is AI-generated and does not show an authentic clip of the Assam flood.
