Only two out of 10 clips in the video depict the Harbin sandstorm on May 31.
The 18-year-old victim was hospitalized in August 2021. No record shows any suspect was arrested or identified by race or religion. She fully recovered after one day of hospitalization.
The Instagram user who shot the original clip says it is “a beef leg.” An anatomy expert says it has features typical of hoofed animals such as cows, sheep, goats, camels, or horses.
Widely shared clips repurpose charity videos on rural poverty and disability, not marriage customs or domestic abuse
