WarWatch tracks armed conflict from 45 news and OSINT sources — wire services, regional press, verified Telegram channels and geolocated incident feeds — and scores every country on how much conflict reporting it is generating. The globe above carries the same data: click a country for its dossier, a marker for an alert, a strait for its transit monitor.
Severity measures conflict reporting per country, not casualties or territory. A country rises when more of what is published about it is judged to report an armed-conflict event, which is why a state that is reported on heavily can outrank one where more is happening quietly. What a real-time war map can and cannot show, and how this one compares with other live conflict maps, is written up separately.
