Chinese vloggers label Bangladesh slums as 'New Delhi' in odd videos

Here is a strange one. Chinese vloggers are posting videos that show slums in Bangladesh and present them as India.

One of the clips carries the line "This is New Delhi". It is not. The footage shows neighbourhoods in Bangladesh, a separate country that borders India to the east, and not the Indian capital.

New Delhi is India's capital city, so the label makes the mix-up easy to spot for anyone who knows the two countries. For viewers who don't, it can leave a very wrong picture of both places.

The videos have been described as bizarre, and it's easy to see why. Passing one country's streets off as another's is the kind of error that is hard to explain away.

If you come across a clip that claims to show a famous city, it's worth checking where it was actually filmed before you share it.
