Evidence of AI Generation
LatestLY's editorial research indicates that the video is highly likely to be AI-generated. The source of the video has been traced to an Instagram account named Egyptoon. The account's bio clearly identifies it as an "Animation Studio" and regularly publishes animated content.
Further investigation reveals that Egyptoon is known for producing satirical animated clips addressing social issues and current events in Egypt and the Arab world. Their YouTube channel, described as the first and biggest Egyptian cartoon channel for youth, showcases their expertise in animation. Additionally, their Facebook page includes posts, such as a satirical apology, further cementing their identity as an animation studio.

Lack of Credible Reporting
Crucially, there are no credible news reports from established media outlets verifying the incident as a real event. The absence of such verification from reliable sources further undermines the authenticity of the viral video. The available evidence strongly points to the video being a fictional creation rather than documentation of a supernatural occurrence.
Conclusion
The claim that a woman was tossed away by a "Jinn" after crossing paths with a cat on a staircase in Egypt is false. The video circulating as proof is an AI-generated animation created by the Egyptoon studio.
