And, here is the true story. "VERDICT

Partly false. These are genuine photos of electric cars in France, but they were taken off the road due to financial difficulties, not problems with the battery storage cells. More than 2,500 of the cars have been resold. On claims about soil pollution risk posed by the cars, Paul Aouizerate, head of Atis Production, told France Info here “Our vehicles are properly stored. The firefighters are aware, the construction site is well organized. All the batteries have been removed and the connectors are isolated.”

BTW, this plane was hit by a cirrus which parachuted down after the collision, this link shows the video.

I, too, thought about checking into that story.
But TBH, I'm similarly skeptical of the (so-called) fact-checking that was posted.
