Verdict history
| When | From | To | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-30 18:00 UTC | 2026-11-03 | 2026-12-29 | Checked in the one-time pass of 30 Oct 2026: still open. The figure is a party's count of the other side's losses; the record holds only government and Houthi claims for late September fighting (for example ev-20261027-wjpv) and no independent count. Next check on the ladder from 2026-09-29 (7 days, 30 days, then quarterly). |
