What the checks found

Independently corroborated1419% of settled claims

Independent, non-militia reporting described the same event with the same substance.

Corroborated in part2129% of settled claims

The event was independently reported, but a material detail in the claim — a casualty figure, a target, an attribution — was not borne out.

Contradicted00% of settled claims

Independent reporting positively contradicted the claim. This is the only outcome that counts as a finding against the source.

No independent record3751% of settled claims

No independent outlet reported it either way. This is not a finding of falsehood: Iraqi coverage is uneven, whole districts go unreported, and these channels are sometimes genuinely first.

Not checkable00% of settled claims

The claim could never have left an independent trace — a statement of intent, an internal grievance, a prediction — so it was recorded but never scored.

“No independent record” does not mean false. It means no outlet outside the militia information space reported the event either way. Iraqi coverage is uneven, whole districts and whole weeks go unreported, and these channels are sometimes genuinely first. Only the contradicted column carries a positive finding against a source.

325 claims about events outside Iraq are reported here but never scored. This desk builds its independent record from reporting inside Iraq. A claimed strike on Eilat, Tower 22 or eastern Syria cannot be confirmed against Iraqi sources however true it is, so counting it as unconfirmed would measure our reach rather than the claim. Those claims stay in the total and in the analysis; they are kept out of every rate.

Independent reporting positively contradicted 0% of settled claims, and bore out another 29% only in part — the event real, a material detail overstated.

When independent reporting did catch up, it took a median of 0.07h. That lag is why a claim is re-checked on a ladder rather than judged once: a claim four hours old with no independent record yet is not the same finding as one four days old with none.
