Geolocation shows that this picture () of a Ferrari with licence plate "UNP" was indeed taken in #Lebanon. That licence plate was or is used by UN personnel in #Israel. Can @UN confirm or deny this car belongs to their staff?
I've reached out to @UN_Lebanon to clarify this issue.
It's not the first time a sports car with "UNP" licence plates is spotted in #Lebanon. @THE_47th noticed this Porsche "UNP 1900" in Beirut in September 2015.
And another one: a black Porsche 911 Turbo with licence plate "UNP 1005" in downtown Beirut, #Lebanon. Old photo though, it's apparently from 2006. exoleb.com/2006/03/01/por… h/t @THE_47th.

This may be the largest mass breach of an intelligence service in recent history. 305 individuals registered their car to the same address as Aleksei Morenets, one of the four accused GRU officers. Here's our latest with @the_ins_ru. bellingcat.com/news/2018/10/0…
Remember the dating profile () of GRU officer Morenets that a @Bellingcat workshop participant found this morning? @Peterkeizer geolocated (nos.nl/artikel/225338…) the profile pic. Guess what, taken 650m from the GRU barracks: google.com/maps/@55.72826….
And as @RuslanLeviev noted, it's right in front of the Russian Ministry of Defence's headquarters, too. google.com/maps/@55.72747…

Did CNN use the same little girl in three different refugee crisis pictures?

Answer: No, they didn't. This triptych simply captures one girl being passed around from a rescuer, caretaker, or family members in Aleppo, #Syria, in August 2016. (Thread).
A simple reverse image search will lead to the original pictures. This is what @Snopes did when they debunked this viral (and vile) image in December 2016. snopes.com/fact-check/cnn…
The first image depicts a White Helmets member carrying the girl along with several other children at the site of the alleged attack in Aleppo, #Syria, on 27 August 2016. The original photograph was cropped for the "CNN image".

This is NOT recent footage of the #SyriaStrikes, but recycled footage from May *2013* from an alleged Israeli airstrike on the Jamraya Research Center in Damascus.
This video is being shared countless of times as showing today's #SyriaStrikes in Damascus, but guess what? It's not — the footage shows shelling in the Ukrainian city of Luhansk in February 2015.
This video is being shared many times too, claiming to show today's #SyriaStrikes on the Jamraya Research Centre in Damascus. The footage does appear to show that location, but not in 2018 — this was broadcast in May 2013 after an alleged Israeli strike.

For years, Dutch intelligence had access to Russia's Cozy Bear hackers group. Crucial evidence for Russian interference in the U.S. elections was obtained, prompting a FBI investigation. That's what @Nieuwsuur and @volkskrant have found. volkskrant.nl/tech/dutch-age…
Cozy Bear's located in a university building near the Red Square. Dutch intel (AIVD) manage to gain access to a security camera. Faces of everyone who enters or exits are analysed for matches with known Russian spies. Info that will prove to be vital, @huibmodderkolk writes.
The Americans were completely taken by surprise by the Russian aggression, making it one of the reasons the Dutch access was so appreciated → the Americans sent ‘cake’ and ‘flowers’ (and knowledge, tech, and intel) to the AIVD, sources tell @huibmodderkolk.

Currently updating the layout of Bellingcat's digital forensics tools, and adding pros and cons of tools we use. docs.google.com/document/d/1Bf…
Always wondered how to download anyone's tweets, followers and likes into a single spreadsheet? There's an easy tool (and Chrome extension) for that: Twlets (@twlets, twlets.com). H/t @henkvaness.
In which timezone do Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram show the upload time? Useful overview by @firstdraftnews on how to read time stamps on social media.

Based on 7 incidents shown in 7 social media videos, Al-Werfalli is charged with murder as war crime under Art. 8(2)(c)(i) of Rome Statute.
