      "headline": "UN inquiry report on Gaza children enters the public-record lane",
      "summary": "Reuters reported on a UN inquiry accusing Israeli authorities and security forces of deliberately targeting Palestinian children during the Gaza conflict. Israel rejected the report. The item remains a contested public international-record signal, not a settled court finding.",
      "why": "Shows how alleged state violence, child casualties, international-law claims, evidentiary standards, and official rebuttals should be tracked separately.",

      "summary": "UNHCR's 2026 Global Trends reporting placed forced displacement at roughly 117.8 million people in 2025. The Matrix Reprogrammed panel separates refugees, asylum seekers, internally displaced people, stateless people, and other protected populations rather than merging them into a single political slogan.",
      "why": "Displacement is one of the clearest measures of system shock: war, failed states, border pressure, humanitarian collapse, and migration politics all converge here.",

These categories are not interchangeable and should not be presented as a single illegal-immigration counter.",

      "summary": "The migration panel now tracks deaths and disappearances separately from arrivals, encounters, asylum applications, and removals. Route-level mortality is undercounted and must be sourced from IOM Missing Migrants and reputable incident reporting.",
