However, as we investigated, we came to know that the claim was misleading. The viral video is old and unrelated to Operation Sindoor. Here’s the fact check.

Fact Check 

We started our investigation by taking some screenshots from the viral video and conducting a reverse image search. This led us to an Instagram post where the viral video was uploaded on 13 April 2025. The caption of the post read, “Brazillian Made Astros MK3M firing SS-60 rockets at night.”
