Ground‑radar Limits on Mass‑Grave Claims

Preliminary ground‑penetrating‑radar (GPR) hits are technically ambiguous: features like early‑20th‑century septic trenches, shovel test pits, or other subsurface disturbances can produce profiles similar to graves. Without archival research, transparent reports, and independent, attributable expert review, GPR results should be treated as hypotheses, not definitive proof. — This idea reframes how journalists, indigenous communities, and investigators should treat forensic‑sounding remote sensing claims to avoid misinforming public debate and to preserve institutional legitimacy.
