BBC Verify focuses on determining whether online claims, images, videos, locations, and narratives can be independently supported.
Its work frequently involves open-source investigation, satellite imagery, geolocation, data analysis, and examination of digital evidence.
The Chronicles has a different role. Rather than primarily publishing investigations into individual viral claims, it focuses on organizing documented material into an accessible archive.
BBC Verify is best for:
- Fact-checking
- Misinformation analysis
- Geolocation investigations
- Evaluating viral claims
- Explaining verification techniques
Choose The Chronicles if you primarily want:
- Discovering documented material
- Researching Ukraine-specific records
- Following sources and channels
- Exploring material through categories
- Accessing an organized archive
Readers investigating whether a major viral claim is authentic may prefer BBC Verify. Readers exploring documented events across Ukraine over time may prefer The Chronicles.
