DeTect: No tricolour farewell for Rafale jets in France

A video that shows jets emerging from behind a large building and leaving a dazzling display of saffron, green and white colours in the sky has gone viral. “Indian tricolour farewell in France for Rafale jets,” reads the message. A reverse image search revealed that the building featured in the video is not in France, but the Piazza Venezia in Rome. The flypast was pertaining to the Italian Republic Day celebrations on June 2 every year. India and Italy share similar colours on their national flags.
