False Claims of Kyiv's 'Space Walk' Bridge Spark Social Media Misinformation
Social media users have been misled by false claims of a new illuminated bridge in Kyiv, Ukraine, offering panoramic views. The claim is unfounded, with no credible Ukrainian media sources reporting its existence.
The supposed bridge, dubbed 'Space Walk', is alleged to be 333 meters high with 717 steps. However, the truth lies elsewhere. The VoxCheck team has previously debunked similar false claims about Kyiv. The bridge does exist, but it is located in Pohang, South Korea, not Ukraine. Other posts have falsely claimed its location to be in Lviv or Ivano-Frankivsk, employing clickbait tactics to misinform.
The 'Space Walk' bridge is a marvel in South Korea, not Ukraine. No such bridge exists in Kyiv. Social media users should be cautious of such misleading claims and verify information from credible sources.
