SITREP BRIEFS

A daily analyst brief on conflict, disaster and political economy — read twice, once mid-morning and once when the day is nearly complete.

Editions, as published

The archive rule. Editions are preserved here exactly as published and are never edited afterward. Each date is a permalink whose contents are fixed at generation. If a page at one of these addresses ever changes, that is a defect worth reporting, not a feature.

Two editions, two questions. The morning brief reads a rolling 48-hour window at 11:30 UTC and answers what is going on. The evening edition is scoped to one whole UTC day, read at 22:30 UTC when about 94% of it has elapsed, and answers what happened today — the more complete account of that date. An edition recorded as not preserved was never generated: the box was down, the scheduled run refused, or the daily spend cap was reached.
