The chapters

This story continues an earlier wave: 15-year-old kills school worker in Poland's second school attack in two days, 8 to 10 Oct 2026, 67 outlets.

The figures

Coverage: 46 outlets in 30 countries, across 5 regions, 2 of them trade press. The article links are kept for good for every story that reaches the map. Of the 46 outlets, 2 state-owned, 6 public-service, 38 private. A count of countries is not a count of independent press systems.
Countries by region: Africa 2: Ghana, South Africa. Americas 3: Argentina, Brazil, Canada. Asia-Pacific 1: Kazakhstan. Europe 20: Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Czechia, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Kosovo, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Ukraine. Middle East 4: Israel, Lebanon, Qatar, Saudi Arabia. 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, Azerbaijani, Belarusian, Czech, German, Greek, English, Spanish, Hungarian, Georgian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Albanian, Serbian, Ukrainian.
Timeline: Earliest article GHN, 10 Oct 2026, 00:00 UTC. First seen 10 Oct 2026, 12:00 UTC. Last seen 11 Oct 2026, 05:04 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 Europe, Poland. Topic Conflict & Security. Hard news Judged not hard news. Shown, because it was on the map and one verdict does not remove a story; a second would. 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: 3.19, 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 15-year-old kills school worker in Poland's second school attack in two days. Merged from 2 stories Woman injures three in Warsaw school knife attack, third in a week; Knife attack outside Warsaw school leaves two teenage girls injured. 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.
