- A hatched block means the outlet is affiliated with, or controlled by, a state.
Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.
Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

Two children were killed and several others were injured after drone debris struck a private childcare center in Krasnodar, southern Russia. Governor Veniamin Kondratyev reported that seven other children were wounded in the incident. Additional reports indicate that drone debris hit residential buildings and a construction site, while another strike caused a fire at a logistics center operated by the online retailer Ozon. In the neighboring Stavropol region, authorities stated that a drone attack against an industrial chemical production zone in Nevinnomysk was repelled.
While center leaning reports contextualize the event as part of a broader Ukrainian strategy to target Russian logistics and economic hubs, they also note a simultaneous Russian attack near Kharkiv that killed three people. Center right reporting focuses primarily on the Russian authorities' denunciations of the attacks and the resulting casualties and property damage. Russian President Vladimir Putin previously stated that attacks on economic targets have opened a caixa de Pandora, warning that Moscow would retaliate against sensitive economic sectors in Ukraine.
