The Global Conflict Tracker is an index of The Boston Report’s conflict reporting: recent World News desk stories that are about wars, strikes and related security crises, plus links to the specialized trackers we already maintain. It is not a live battlefield feed, and it does not invent casualty totals, territorial-control percentages or weapons counts.
When a story belongs to Ukraine, Sudan, Yemen or Iran, it can appear here and on that country page at the same time. Readers looking for charts should open the dedicated Ukraine or Iran trackers rather than treat this page as a substitute.
Specialized conflict trackers already on the site
- Ukraine war tracker — sourced figures charted over time
- Iran war tracker — strikes, oil and Hormuz shipping
- Military deployments tracker — carriers and forces from official U.S. statements
- War news — the main warfare hub
- Russia-Ukraine war 2026 guide
Those pages remain the canonical homes for their charts and methodologies. This tracker does not copy their numbers into a second unofficial dashboard.
Stories listed here come from The Boston Report World News desk. A report can appear in more than one section when it involves more than one country, subject or organization. Matching uses headlines, slugs and excerpts, and editor-assigned categories such as Iran, Asia-Pacific and Southeast Asia. We do not have reporters on the ground.
