The GDELT Project reads news outlets around the world and, every 15 minutes, publishes the attacks, clashes and bombings they report, with where they happened. CyberSignal keeps those placed to a town or city and naming the event in their headline, groups them by war, and keeps 30 days.
These are reports, not confirmed events: a place can be the newsroom’s guess, and one strike can be reported many times. How many separate outlets reported a place is the best guide; open the sources before relying on any of it.
