How to read a dossier
Every incident is judged on three separate questions. An airport can be confirmed closed while it is still unclear whether a drone was involved at all.
Was there a drone?
Drone presence: reported by a source, confirmed by explicit evidence, inconclusive after investigation, or debunked.
What was the impact?
Closures, diversions, damage or injuries, with their own evidence state. “Not established” means no source reports an impact.
Who is responsible?
Attribution is never inferred. A party’s claim, a charge and a court finding are shown as different things.
