Unrelated video from Indonesia falsely linked to Nepal protests
A video of protesters breaking gates and clashing with police is being misrepresented as footage from Nepal’s Gen-Z anti-corruption protests. BOOM found the clip is from Central Java, Indonesia, where residents protested a steep property tax hike in August 2025. Geolocation confirmed the site as Pati Regency’s Regional Secretariat, not Kathmandu or any Nepalese city.
