Claim: A video shared on X showed a December 2023 eruption of Mount Marapi in Indonesia. Rating: About this rating MiscaptionedIn early December 2023, a video was circulated on social media, allegedly showing an eruption of Mount Marapi in Indonesia. However, some social media users suggested that the viral video did not show a Mount Marapi eruption in December 2023. "Indonesia's Mount Merapi Volcano Erupts," one viral YouTube video's title shared in March 2020 read. In conclusion, given that the video showed neither an eruption of Mount Marapi in December 2023 nor an eruption of Mount Merapi in 2020, but rather Mount Sinabung eruption in February 2018, we have rated this video as Miscaptioned.
