Doctored photographs are disseminated about Sweden’s elections.

Verdict: FAKE NEWS

The TV Tavisupali Arkhi – Free Channel Facebook page published a photograph in the social network with the following caption:  “Hot water in winter 2023 – poster from Sweden’s election campaign.” This description of the publication is not true since the photograph has nothing to do with Sweden’s election campaign. 

The search for the photograph’s origin through Google’s reverse image search led us to the Twitter and Facebook publications made by the plumbing and heating company Bumblebee Plumbing & Heating. The photograph and publication published by the company’s official pages are indented to be humorous and entertaining. 

Facebook users published the similar photograph with the Polish caption:  “Instant Water Heater. Model – Winter 2023.”

The photograph published by the Georgian Facebook page has a caption in Swedish:  “Hot water, winter 2022/23.” This photo has nothing to do with the Swedish elections.
