What FACTLY found

Both video clips are old and unrelated to the 2024 Assam floods. The bridge collapse video was filmed in Indonesia in April 2021 during a flood in the Kambaniru River. The second clip featuring a train getting overturned by flood water was filmed in 2022 at the New Haflong Railway Station in the Dima Hasao district of Assam.
