The chapters

This story continues an earlier wave: Saudi-led coalition says it destroyed 136 Houthi military targets in Yemen, 7 to 10 Oct 2026, 31 outlets.

The figures

Coverage: 31 outlets in 20 countries, across 5 regions. The article links are kept for good for every story that reaches the map. Of the 31 outlets, 4 state-owned, 1 public-service, 26 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region: Africa 2: Senegal, Tunisia. Americas 1: Argentina. Asia-Pacific 7: Afghanistan, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nepal, Pakistan, Vietnam. Europe 2: Austria, France. Middle East 7: Iraq, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey, United Arab Emirates. International 1: the outlets that publish from no single country, counted as one. The region a country’s press publishes from, as the feed list files it; the outlets that publish from no single country count as one country under International.
Languages: Arabic, German, English, Spanish, French, Indonesian, Malay, Nepali, Vietnamese.
Timeline: Earliest article Al Watan (SA), 7 Oct 2026, 20:42 UTC. First seen 7 Oct 2026, 21:40 UTC. Last seen 10 Oct 2026, 11:01 UTC. The earliest article is the earliest claimed publication time among the outlets Loudest reads, a claim rather than an observation and not a record of who broke the story (the data files call it the lead article); first seen is when Loudest first fetched an article of it, from which the running time counts.
Classification: Region Middle East, Yemen. Topic Conflict & Security. Hard news Judged hard news. On the map. Whether the story is hard news under the rule in the methodology, judged from its headlines by a model; a story judged outside the rule is left off the map and kept here. The region and country are where the story is about, not where it was covered.
Score: 0.12, as of now. One vote per general-press country and a smaller term for outlets, each counted from the moment it joined the story and fading on its own clock, so a late article does not renew the rest. A day in the archive keeps the score it was ranked by that day.
Chain: Continues Saudi-led coalition says it destroyed 136 Houthi military targets in Yemen. Continued by হুতিদের ১৩৬টি সামরিক স্থাপনায় হামলা, দাবি সৌদি নেতৃত্বাধীন জোটের. Merged from 3 stories Saudi-led coalition says it destroyed 136 Houthi military targets in Yemen; Saudi-led coalition destroys 82 Houthi military targets in Yemen; Saudi-led coalition claims destruction of 82 Houthi targets. A story continues another when it resembled it as it began, past that story’s own 48-hour box. A story merged from several was grouped from stories about the same event; each keeps its own headline and page, and the whole story counts every outlet and country once.
Day by day: Outlets and countries are the story’s whole life as of that midnight; the 24-hour columns are that day’s own coverage; the last column is the methodology version the day was measured under, and a day that spans a change of version shows the first and last, linked to the changelog that lists every version between. A day marked partial is one Loudest read only in part: fewer than 130 of its 144 ten-minute runs, or more than 30 minutes missed at its start or end.
