Headline check performed by keyword heuristics. How scoring works →
Score shown is for the latest development only — each entry in the timeline has its own independent score. Grouping into this hub does not affect any individual story’s score. How hubs work →
KhabarCheck groups developments automatically by shared, specific detail — not just a shared topic — so unrelated stories that happen to mention the same name or institution don’t get lumped together. This grouping can occasionally miss a development or split one by mistake; read the method. See a development that doesn’t belong here? Report it.
