# ViFactCheck: A Multi-Domain Vietnamese News Fact-Checking Benchmark
## Dataset Summary
**ViFactCheck** is the **first publicly available benchmark dataset** for multi-domain news fact-checking in Vietnamese. It contains **7,232 human-annotated claim–evidence pairs** sourced from nine reputable Vietnamese online news outlets, spanning **12 diverse topics**. Each entry pairs a claim with its full article context and annotated evidence, labeled as *Supported*, *Refuted*, or *Not Enough Information (NEI)*.
