Claim 1: “Kurumanrivier in vloed: ‘Krokodille, walvisse’ kom glo in rivier af”
MISLEADING
While web search confirms the Kuruman River experienced flooding after decades, the mention of 'whales' and 'crocodiles' appears to be confused with unrelated events (a beluga in the Seine and the Murray River in Australia) as seen in the TikTok search result. The claim presents these as occurring in the Kuruman River.
