Recent trend

Year-over-year change is not available for Latest day (2026-08-26) because the dataset does not contain a complete-year comparison pair for this single-day period. The 2026 year series currently records 285 dated incidents, while the full multi-year archive contains 344 total incidents for 2026. Because 2026 remains an active calendar year and no prior-year comparison is published in the archive series, annual percentage trends cannot be calculated. Headline figures reflect only the 4 property incidents logged on August 26, 2026, rather than an annual total or multi-year historical trend.
