What is IRWatch?
IRWatch is a free, live OSINT dashboard focused on the Iran conflict (Operation Epic Fury). It aggregates 26+ vetted sources (Reuters, BBC, USNI News, Al Jazeera, Telegram) with AI-powered categorization, confidence ratings (0-100), and source reliability scoring.
Relevance to Investigators
- Real-time multi-source feed — AI-classified into 7 threat domains (Strike/Kinetic, Naval/Hormuz, Casualties/KIA, Diplomatic, Intelligence, Economic, Protest/Civil)
- Interactive military mapping — bases, deployments, strike locations with source attribution
- Strait of Hormuz tracker — live disruption monitoring, vessel tracking, chokepoint analysis
- Aircraft monitoring — military aircraft over the Persian Gulf
- Structured intelligence — Iran leadership profiles, military asset inventory, chronological event timeline
- Source transparency — every item linked to original source with reliability score
