What FACTLY found
The video is not from Gurugram. It shows a shelf cloud formation over Lviv, Ukraine, in August 2021. Several Ukrainian media outlets, including Zaxid.net, reported the phenomenon at the time. While a few reports mentioned a shelf cloud moving towards Delhi NCR, the viral video is unrelated to that event.
