Claim

"Muslims attack motorists in Birmingham UK as they wanted to block the road and break their fast."

Fact

BOOM had fact checked the same claim earlier and found it to be false. The original video from Basel, Switzerland, shows violent clashes that broke out after a championship match between Basel and Lucerne football clubs near a stadium in Birsstrasse on May 19, 2018, according to news reports.
