Factcheck:
Reports of 16,800 ticket cancellations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup are circulating on social media, citing safety and political concerns in the US, including immigration policies. However, these claims appear unverified, with no official statement from FIFA confirming cancellations or an emergency meeting. Major news outlets like Reuters and AP have not reported on this. I’ll monitor for updates.
