Global News Map
Live map of wars and conflicts
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Global News Map shows the wars and armed conflicts in the news on a live globe: who is fighting, who is backing whom, where attacks are landing and what it is doing to people.
Every hour, reports from established outlets (BBC, The Guardian, Al Jazeera, DW, CBC, NPR, the UN, the Red Cross and more) are read and turned into the map. Every attack and development links to its source article, with a label explaining whether it has been checked against that article. Casualty figures include checked quotes and their sources.
• Dedicated Map, Headlines, Conflicts, Chat and Settings pages
• Community discussion with replies, mentions, reporting, hiding and account deletion
• Source perspectives and customisable conflict context
• Conflicts coloured by status: escalating, active, easing, ceasefire, frozen
• Attacks of the last week replayed on the map, occupied territory in Ukraine, military aircraft and ships
• Follow the conflicts you care about and get an alert when they have news
• Catch up on reports since your last visit, with followed conflicts first
• Clear reporting times and explanations of checked and unchecked claims
• A home screen widget with the conflicts escalating right now
• Good news mode: only progress towards peace
• Cyber mode: DDoS attacks, ransomware and internet outages
• Weather mode: rain, storms, floods and the weather where the fighting is
• Disasters mode: earthquakes, erupting volcanoes, cyclones, floods, wildfires and droughts, with details for each
• Predict mode: forecasts of where fighting is expected over the coming year, and dates announced in the news
• Trending: the stories picking up new outlets fastest, not only the biggest
• What the sides are claiming: posts from official accounts, shown as claims and kept apart from reporting
A news digest, not an intelligence product: don't rely on it for safety decisions.
