Bellingcat and @cerosetenta are monitoring the protests in Colombia, collecting and analyzing videos of police brutality against demonstrators.
We're launching a mapping platform to help track police violence during this latest round of protests.
cerosetenta.uniandes.edu.co/represion-y-mu…
Previously, we assisted @cerosetenta with the #9S project, which focused on police violence against demonstrators at five locations in and around Bogotá during the 9 September 2020 protests.
Watch those reports here:

Our collaboration with @cerosetenta follows our first joint investigation in 2019 conducted alongside @Newsy, which identified the badge number of the police officer who killed a student named Dilan Cruz at a protest in Bogotá that year.
We'll be working with @cerosetenta and @Newsy in the coming weeks to locate and verify more videos of police violence.
We'll be adding this to the map, so make sure to continue to check it for updated information.

Where in the world is Q, the imageboard user whose mysterious “drops” spawned an army of followers? Thanks to image metadata, we may finally have an answer -- albeit a very broad one.
bellingcat.com/news/rest-of-w…
Highlighted below are the only two time zones where, in our sample, two or more of Q’s images were taken. The vast majority were from the Pacific time zone.
Most images in Q drops don’t have enough useful metadata to analyse, but a specific subset does. They're screenshots from a phone. In the “DateCreated” field, we found timestamps that reveal the time when Q took these screenshots, just before posting a drop with them attached.

We are reworking how we're processing donations to maximize the $ that Meduza receives. Instead of directly signing up to this webinar via our payment platform, please send a 200 EUR or USD donation to Meduza directly. Forward us the receipt and we'll send you webinar info!
Please see more information on the webinar (time, topics, etc.) and direct instructions on this receipt-forwarding thing here: events.eventzilla.net/e/bellingcat-o…
We're refunding the payments for the 14 (!) people who have registered, so that they can directly donate the money to Meduza. They'll get the most money out of it as possible, without worrying about extra VAT/service fees. If you already signed up, we sent you an email just now.

The latest from Respekt, @the_ins_ru and Bellingcat, revealing more details into the GRU's operations in Europe, evidencing how there were linked to the conflict in Ukraine bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-eu…
We previously identified more team members of the GRU team responsible for the Vrbetice warehouse explosion in Czechia, and that it included the most senior leadership of the unit.

India’s coronavirus crisis continues to escalate as it becomes one of the most severely hit countries in the world to date.

In desperation, many are turning to social media sites such as Twitter to find medical resources bellingcat.com/news/2021/04/2…
These cries for help are poignant and heartbreaking.

But they also provide a window of observation into the speed of escalation of the crisis and the dangers Covid-19 still poses.

Hashtags such as #IndiaNeedsOxygen & #COVIDEmergency2021 have become commonplace
During March, there were on average only five tweets per day (excluding retweets) containing the keywords “delhi” and “urgent”.

By April 21, this had increased to over 400, with a new request for help sent every 24 seconds late in the evening on April 22.
