WARRADAR

About WarRadar

WarRadar is an independent, free live map of the world's armed conflicts. It follows public reports of missile strikes, drone attacks, airstrikes, naval incidents and front-line developments and puts each one on the map within minutes of the first post — often within seconds — together with any video that came with it.

Where the reports come from

Everything on WarRadar comes from open sources: news agencies and broadcasters' RSS feeds, official channels (for example air-force and civil-defence alerts) and public Telegram channels of OSINT analysts and regional outlets, including channels in Ukrainian, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew and Persian. Every event links to the post it came from, so you can always read the original.

How events are processed

A language model reads each new report once: it translates the headline into seven languages, names the place so it can be mapped, sorts the report into a type (strike, drone, missile, air, naval…) and a conflict zone, and estimates a threat level. Reports that turn out not to be about armed conflict are removed. The same incident is often reported by several sources; each report keeps its own entry.

What “unverified” means

WarRadar does not have reporters on the ground and does not confirm events independently. Reports are shown as their sources published them. Reports from news outlets' feeds and the UN's ReliefWeb are labelled as such; posts from Telegram and social media are marked unverified. Early reports in a war are often wrong — treat a single post as a lead, not a fact, and open the source before sharing it. Locations are approximate.
