The Killing of Shatha Al-Sabbagh
In this investigation, we combine geospatial analysis with survivor and witness testimonies to reconstruct attacks on medical facilities. By triangulating videos, social media posts, and satellite shots, we chart the sequence of events and identify responsible munitions.
Approach:
- Gathering open-source videos showing impacts and damage around hospitals.
- Geolocating each video frame against satellite imagery to establish exact impact points.
- Eyewitness interviews and metadata analysis to timestamp each event.
- Cross-referencing with official flight track data where available to identify aircraft or munitions.
- Creating a layered map that shows damage progression and estimated munition trajectories.
This transparent workflow allows external parties to follow each step—from raw video to final damage map—ensuring that conclusions about responsibility and sequence of events are verifiable by anyone with access to the same open‐source evidence.
