Corrections, Verification & Audit Log

Every report on sitmap.live carries a verification state, and states change. This page shows what we got wrong or could not stand behind, how well sourced recent events are, and each change of state as it happened.

Marked disputed or debunked

Sources contradict each other (disputed), or the report was judged false or misattributed (debunked). These stay on the site for the record.

Incidents by verification state. An attack and the reports of its aftermath (casualties, damage, closures) linked to it are one incident, counted at the attack's state: 115 such reports are not counted again. Incidents reported in the last 12 hours are left out of the chart: corroboration takes hours, so a fresh report is unverified for want of time, not for want of sources. This says how well sourced they are, not how true: a single-source report is not a false one.

Not counted: 1228 leads (aggregator reposts that name no source).

Withdrawn events (merged away, found out of scope, or removed by review) are not listed. When an event we posted on X is later disputed, debunked or withdrawn, the post gets a reply saying so.

Do early reports hold up?

Every event on the map starts as one report. These are all 2524 events first reported since 2026-10-26 (leaving out the last 12 hours, too recent to judge), by where each stands now.

276corroborated or confirmed
14rated up with no new source
32disputed or debunked
125withdrawn
1226single source
851unverified

276 (11%) were corroborated by an independent source or confirmed, a median of 4 hours after the first report. 14 (1%) reached corroborated or confirmed only when the same reports were rated again (changed rules or ratings, or a new review), with no new source: they are not counted as having held up. 32 (1%) were contradicted: marked disputed or debunked. 125 (5%) were withdrawn as out of scope or on review. 1226 (49%) rest on one credible source, and 851 (34%) on no credible source: anonymous or partisan channels only, however many. Neither group has been confirmed or contradicted, which does not make them wrong.

Not counted: 497 leads, reposts by aggregator channels that name no source. Nothing in them can be checked, so they are not events until a report with a source of its own joins them.

Audit log

The newest changes of state the site has recorded, newest first, in UTC, each with why it changed. Events withdrawn from the site are not named. Recording of state changes began 2026-10-26 19:13 UTC; earlier changes were not recorded.

Since 2026-10-26: 454 moves up to corroborated or confirmed on new reports or evidence; besides, 109 reclassified by changes to the rules, ratings or settings (changes to the rules); 13 by the automated review or on review; 13 re-ratings of the same reports whose cause was not recorded. 137 moves down a level.

Changes to the rules

When the rules that set a state change, stored events are rated again on the same reports. Those moves are reclassifications, not new evidence: they are counted apart above and listed here.

  1. party rule. A party's statement about its own strikes, its interceptions or the enemy's losses no longer confirms an event; a neutral body, an authority's own record or an admission against interest still does.0 up, 61 downD32
  2. strong-origin corroboration. An established or stronger origin plus any second independent one corroborates (before, the weights had to add up to 1.2); the stored weak events with two or more origins were rated again.106 up, 0 down5a3a285 strong-origin corroboration + reverify:multi

Air-traffic signals withdrawn or lowered

Drops in air traffic are machine-detected from ADS-B counts. When a signal turns out to rest on poor receiver coverage, or is rated higher than its evidence allows, it is withdrawn or its confidence lowered, and the change is listed here.

  1. KW airspace, drop detected 2026-10-31 20:24 UTCConfidence medium to lowthe usual hour here is too thin (median 12, lowest 4 aircraft entering) for more than low confidence
  2. QA airspace, drop detected 2026-10-30 09:57 UTCConfidence high to mediumno airspace closure notice in force covers it, and a fall in the aircraft counted entering a FIR is never high confidence alone
  3. IQ airspace, drop detected 2026-10-30 12:36 UTCWithdrawnour receivers' coverage of the Baghdad FIR (ORBB) is thin: 69% of the polls over the 7 days before saw no aircraft inside it. A fall in the aircraft counted there is not evidence of a closure
