Is the claim true?: No, the claim is false.

• All three videos have been created using artificial intelligence (AI) and are not real, as claimed.

What we found: At first, we ran a relevant keyword search to find out whether the three politicians had given such statements amid the ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan. However, did not find anything related to this.

• We, then, noticed that the words and the lip movement in all three videos did not match. This was an indicator that the video could be created using AI.

• Team WebQoof, then, ran all three clips on AI-detection website, Hive Moderation and found that they had content which was created using AI. Swipe right to see the results.

• PM Modi's audio was 98%, Shah's video was 56% and Jaishankar's video was 95%, 'likely AI.'

• Additionally, the quality and finish of these videos was extremely smooth with the background either blurry or clearly visible.

PIB debunks the claim: Press Information Bureau (PIB) debunked Jaishankar's video and said that it was 'AI-generated.'

Conclusion: AI-generated clips of PM Modi, Shah and Jaishankar have gone viral to falsely claim that they apologised for launching an attack against Pakistan, and later 'losing' in the conflict.
