Coverage is not exhaustive. A country without a report is not automatically outage-free. A recent read of an older statement does not prove the current status; such reports stay grey.
FROM STATUS TO STORY
The quick view here. The context in the news.
Each incident has one article. New information joins the same timeline, keeping the original facts and later updates together.

When new, checked evidence supports a change for that incident. Green requires restoration evidence. Old or unclear evidence turns the display grey instead of guessing.
