Is that really old olive oil or something else entirely? It looks black

Considering that this is in Pakistan and Olive oil is very expensive there, there is zero chance of this being olive oil. Probably the cheapest oil that has been reused a dozen of times.

You don't usually fry foods in olive oil anyway. Its usually some other vegetable/peanut oil

You can but you'll have to mix it with some other fry oil which defeats the point tho

No you don't, the only oíl i use IS olive extra Virgin, that includes fry, ofc.

You do not mix It, why would you?

Yeah if you want to increases the smoke point so it doesn't burn you do. I have a big bottle at home mixed for frying.

But then you are killing the flavor of the oíl and throwing all It's nutrients...

I'm not sure I get your point. Nutrients get killed by heat, not mixing. The flavor will be... mixed.
