Data Notes
- Events are extracted from 7 primary sources (Stefan Korshak, Kyiv Independent, Ukrainska Pravda, Meduza, Novaya Gazeta Europe, and others) using AI (Kimi K2.5), then cross-referenced against ISW, wire services (Reuters, AP, AFP), and government sources.
- Each event may have multiple claims from different sources, each with its own confidence level (certain, likely, uncertain, or analytical).
- Confidence tiers (verified, likely, contested, uncorroborated, debunked) are computed from a weighted reliability algorithm, not editorial judgment.
- Geographic data is based on location mentions in source text. No events are geocoded to coordinates yet.
- Entity extraction covers people, military units, weapon systems, organizations, and locations, with faction attribution (Ukrainian, Russian, Western, international).
