This is the reality of a famous video of Russian bombing of an American convoy in Ukraine..Video

A video clip about the war in Ukraine gained wide views recently, after it allegedly documented a Russian bombing of a US military aid convoy, but it quickly became clear that it was false content because the images belonged to a famous video game.

According to Agence France-Presse, the video, which has been viewed thousands of times on Facebook and the Weibo platform, claimed that a Russian bombing targeted an American convoy carrying weapons to Ukraine, but the clip contains only images from the game "ARMA 3".

The clip has garnered thousands of views since it was posted on social media earlier this month.

Chinese users wrote on the Weibo platform that the Russian bombing targeted specific weapons that the Americans tried to bring into Ukraine at night.

The publishers of the video added that the Russians "used special night vision equipment, so they were able to spot the convoy, and then the tanks and military vehicles were bombed until they turned into flying pieces in the air."

The video began circulating on April 28, when the White House called on Congress to provide more military aid to Ukraine.

When searching through Google, it was found that a similar video was posted by a YouTube user on the seventh of last April.

The video, published in "YouTube" on a channel called "CHAOS", bore the title "Dual-cannon tank crushes (military) convoy ARMA 3", a war-inspired video game developed by the Czech-based "Bohemia Interactive" since 2013. .

And “Sky News Arabia” quoted a spokesman for the company in a statement to “AFP” that the video, which was said to be a Russian bombing, shows images from the video game.
