About the data

News is aggregated every 5 minutes from open RSS feeds of BBC News, Al Jazeera, The Guardian, UN News, Deutsche Welle, France 24 and ReliefWeb (UN OCHA).
Only items with direct security, military, diplomatic or humanitarian relevance to a conflict are shown — general news that merely mentions a country is filtered out.
A conflict is marked corroborated only when 2+ independent sources report on it within 48 hours. Single-source items remain visible but unbadged.
Active, potential and civil unrest designations are editorially curated, guided by the CFR Global Conflict Tracker, Crisis Group CrisisWatch and ACLED — the linked assessments are the live authority.
Linked entities are limited to what public sanctions lists (OFAC/EU/UK/UN) and official government records already document. Follow the source link on each entry to verify.
Auto-detected unrest pins (dashed) are machine-suggested when unrest-related reporting appears for a country without a curated entry: blue = one source so far (unconfirmed), green = corroborated by 2+ independent sources. They are suggestions, not confirmed assessments.
Interface translations into 9 languages are human-curated; in all other offered languages the interface stays in English. News articles in any non-English language open via machine translation, which is imperfect — the original article is always available through the source name.
Live-coverage links point to external OSINT maps and broadcaster streams; their content is not verified by this app. This app is an aggregator, not a substitute for official guidance.
