Amid the growing tension between the Indian and Chinese troops along the Line of Actual Control (LAC), a video is doing the rounds on social media showing vehicles moving in a pattern of a mountain range. It is being claimed that the Indian Army Troops are being deployed at the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh.
“Massive Indian Army Troop Movement | LAC Ladakh | India China Standoff 2020 🇮🇳🔥” the caption read.

FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above video and found that the claim attached to it is FAKE.
We began our investigation by putting the video through InVid tool and then putting the extracted keyframes through Reverse Image Search. The results led us to a YouTube video uploaded on July 29, 2019.
The title of the video read, ‘This is amazing an indian army convoys traveling from #Ladakh to Srinagar'(sic).

NewsMobile could not independently verify the origin of the video. But, the above information establishes the fact that the video in question is old as it was already in circulation on the internet much before the recent tensions between Indian and Chinese troops along the LAC, escalated.
