Interactive map — tiles © OpenStreetMap contributors, © CARTO. Markers show broad, publicly documented locations; sensitive sites are generalized to area level. Zone fills, where shown, are broad and approximate context with their own dates and confidence — never precise boundaries. The map does not show current deployments, activity or operational readiness, and is not suitable for operational use. Status is dated and contextual — see themethodology.

Context, not targeting. Explore publishes no current unit positions, strengths or movements, no facility detail and no operational guidance — those classes of content have no fields in Vigil's schemas. Every panel links to the canonical record it summarises. See the methodology.
