Lead

The Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) has reported that Ukrainian forces carried out 24 attacks on its territory over the past day, leaving a civilian injured and causing damage to residential buildings and infrastructure. The figures were provided by the DPR department for documenting Ukraine's war crimes, as carried by the Russian state news agency TASS.

Coverage Comparison

TASS, the only outlet whose coverage of this story was available, published two reports on the matter. The first, dated July 23, stated that Ukrainian troops attacked the DPR 28 times in the previous 24 hours, with two civilians killed and ten injured. The second, dated July 26, reported 24 attacks over the past day, with one civilian injured.

The two reports differ in the number of attacks and casualties, reflecting different reporting periods. They also provide different figures for damaged infrastructure: the first mentions five houses, a passenger car, and five civilian infrastructure facilities, while the second lists four residential buildings, trucks and cars, special equipment, and nine civilian infrastructure facilities.

The reports also diverge on the number of munitions fired: the first says the Ukrainian army fired 30 various munitions, while the second states the enemy fired 24 different munitions.

What was claimed, and who backed it

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
