Reader guide
ConflictClarifier for students
If you're new to conflict reporting, this site is built to help you separate what's known from what's claimed, and to read the news the way analysts do.
How to approach the site
Start with the explainers, not the live timeline. Read the glossary entries for terms you don't recognise. Use the compare gallery to see how the same event reads from different perspectives — that single habit is the most useful thing you can take away.

What to keep in mind
- Treat verification labels as a current best read, not a final verdict.
- If a single source claims something dramatic and no other source has it yet, wait a day before re-sharing.
