 "evidenceNote": "Each dossier separates three claims: drone presence, impact and attribution, each with its own evidence state and supporting sources. 'reported' means a source describes the claim without sufficient identification evidence; claims by parties to a conflict are never 'confirmed' on their own. Counts reflect dossiers in this curated archive, not all incidents worldwide. windowStart/windowEnd are reporting-window calendar bounds, not individual event days; legacy date remains the compatibility/sorting date for such records.",
 "locationNote": "lat/lon are the dossier's own approximate coordinates (see locationPrecision) and are empty when the incident location is unknown. referencePoint {lat, lon, level, name} is a display reference only: a fixed point in the named city (GeoNames), region (its administrative seat), sea or country (Natural Earth label point), derived at build time. It is not a geolocation, not an estimate of the incident location and may change when the dossier's place becomes more precise: reference point; incident location unknown.",
 "detailsNote": "media, operationalEffects, followUp and archiveEntity are editorial, source-indexed additions. Media is publisher-link only, has its own evidence status and never establishes drone presence or attribution. Debunked original-media links are removed; archived revisions omit media references. archivePattern is computed from mapped published event records at generated time, not a worldwide incident count. Null asOf means not established; publication time is not substituted.",

  "impact": "An airspace violation and crash were reported. No injury or property-damage assessment is established here.",
  "evidence": "AeroTime relays an early official description as a makeshift aircraft, with Gerbera only an image-based suggestion. LRT/BNS reports the later ministerial Gerbera identification. Both share Lithuanian official sources. A later VSD assessment describes accidental entry.",
  "unknown": "The operator is not identified here. LRT reports the minister initially lacked evidence of intentional entry; the later Lithuanian intelligence assessment describes entry as accidental. No independent technical assessment by Codex. The marker represents Vilnius district.",
  "attribution": "No operator is assigned. Lithuanian officials described the aircraft as Russian-made; this is not an attribution of operational responsibility.",
