A local representative of an area shown in a video played at the White House said she was "sad" that U.S. President Donald Trump used the footage of hundreds of white crosses as false evidence of mass killings of white South African farmers.

President Donald Trump showed an image of violence in Congo, not South Africa, to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa in an Oval Office meeting.

The Oval Office meeting went off the rails when President Trump started playing videos and repeating discredited claims about a "white genocide" in South Africa.
