A collaborative effort by Investigative Commons, the platform consists of an interactive map that charts where and when the air strikes took place and who sold the weapons
has been launched in a collaborative investigation documenting human rights abuses in the war-torn country.
Each mapped incident includes a date, location, summary, and open-source links to corroborate the attack. Airstrikes are through four categories: those on hospitals, schools, civilians and civilian objects, and places of cultural significance. The map also exposes the role Western arms companies and governments have played in supporting and arming the SLC bombing campaign. It does this by identifying the relationships between documented airstrikes, remnants of weapons, and a timeline of arms exports from certain EU countries to the coalition.
The team contributing to the project includes open-source sleuths Bellingcat, Forensic Architecture, the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights , Mnemonic, and the Global Legal Action Network .Timemap software
