WARNPOINTGLOBAL CONFLICT INTELLIGENCE

What this shows: which countries, armed groups and institutions are named in the same headlines, from every report in the selected time window.

How to read it: the one in the middle is your focus. Each line goes to someone it was named alongside; the number is how many headlines named both, and a thicker line means more. Bigger circle = in more headlines overall.

What it doesn’t mean: a link is not an alliance or a fight. Open a link to read the headlines behind it. Copies of the same headline count once.

Alliances: switch to Alliances to see formal defence alliances and treaties (green), groupings without a defence pact (grey dashed) and documented state backing of armed groups. That is a fixed reference list kept by WARNPOINT, not the news; a blue overlay marks allies that are also in today’s headlines together. Armed groups are placed in the countries where they are active (red dotted); a country that backs a group reaches those countries by proxy (orange dashed). Ties that are credibly reported but denied or unverified are shown separately as alleged (purple dotted), with who reports and who denies them; they are never used to work out proxies. Enemies: a red line means at war now (active armed conflict); a red dashed line means rivals not fighting now (armistice, ceasefire, frozen conflict). Each pair says when it started and where it stands. Terrorist designations show only confirmed US, UK and UN listings, with the date they were checked.
