A clip is being shared by far-right accounts online claiming to show a "riot" led by "masked Muslims" running through Sheffield on August 7. This is false - the clip, which has been widely shared and viewed by millions of people, is of the anti-hate protest on August 4, and shows people running towards Leopold to watch police vehicles leaving the scene as they were redeployed to the violence in Rotherham. This video shows an alternative angle of the clip online, showing the scene was peaceful and attended by dozens of police officers.
