Warzone Fractured Intel Mission locations: Ghost message location, Evacuations were underway and more explained

Where to find all Intel locations in Modern Warfare: Warzone.

Warzone's Fractured Intel Missions are set of objectives within Modern Warfare's battle royale mode.

Released in the first week of Season 4, these have you find items on the map while playing matches by following a series of clues.

Completing each one rewards you with XP, while the entire set rewards you with 10,000XP - giving you a boost towards completing your Season 4 Battle Pass.


Currently, as of Warzone Season 4, you can no longer complete this activity. If you're looking for more help, check out our on-going best Warzone weapons page and the Vanguard Royale meta.

Warzone Fractured Intel Missions and their locations

The following 'Fractured' Challenges went live on June 11th, 2020.

Each Fractured Intel step must be completed in sequence. You can find it within the Challenges area of the Warzone menu, then tab to the end to find these objectives.

Remember these need to be done in Warzone matches. If you're struggling to grab certain items because the areas are heavily populated - the Intel locations are the same for everyone, after all - then try landing near the location and give it a few minutes before moving in, or play until you enter the Gulag and use that second match appearance to pay a visit (assuming you win, of course).

Once done, you can move onto the Hunting the Enemy Intel and Hidden Cargo Intel.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 1: Find the location in the message Ghost sent you

For the first Fractured objective, you are given the clue "Find the location in the message Ghost sent you" and the following image for 2500 XP:

To complete this, visit the TV Station, the named location in the middle of the map.

You specifically need to go to the news room area, which is on the ground floor on the main building.

Look at the desk and you will see the Intel. Press the button prompt and it'll be yours.

If you're struggling to do this Intel quickly - the TV Station is a popular location - then try parachuting through the broken segment of roof to the ground floor, then going through the double doors and taking a right, where the desk will be in front of you.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 2: Evacuations were underway...

For the second Fractured objective, you are given the clue "Evacuations were underway..." and the following image for 5000 XP:

To complete this, visit the Airport, the named location in the west of the map.

You need to visit the north side of the main terminal building, to where you can see a corridor leading out of the top of the building.

The easiest way to get this is to parachute in through the broken part of the roof nearby, which will drop you next to the objective.

Interact with the desk when prompted to move onto the next Fractioned step.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 3: Communications went down before the attack. Follow the trail...

For the third Fractured objective, you are given the clue "Communications went down before the attack. Follow the trail..." and the following image for 5000 XP:

This step has you revisit the Airport, but this time, you must visit the control tower just north of the main building.

You have to reach the top floor of the tower. To do this, you must start on the ground floor, and use the elevator shaft inside to zipline up - you cannot enter by parachuting in from above.

From there, take the steps up, and on your right is where you can interact and collect the intel.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 4: Verdansk ATC reported a transponder went offline...

For the fourth Fractured objective, you are given the clue "Verdansk ATC reported a transponder went offline..." and the following image for 5000 XP:

This location has you find a plane crash site in the north of the map.

Specifically, you need to go directly south of the Military base, where there is a forested area. You'll find the crashed plane here - it's thankfully pretty visible when parachuting in.

The plane has broken into sections, and you need to go to the nose (or front) of the plane, which is to the west.

Look among the seats and you'll find the intel.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 5: A downed airliner tried to contact Arklov Air Force base...

For the fifth Fractured objective, you are given the clue "A downed airliner tried to contact Arklov Air Force base..." and the following image for 5000 XP:

This objective has you go to the Military Base proper, which again, is to the north.

The Military Base is a location formed mostly of individual buildings, but you'll want to find the largest one just off the centre.

From here, go to the building next to it in the south-west.

Inside on the ground floor is the intel on the desk.

Warzone Fractured Intel location 6: Signals Intelligence decrypted a message after the attack

For the sixth Fractured objective, you are given the clue "Signals Intelligence decrypted a message after the attack" and the following image for 10,000 XP:

This objective has you go to the Military Base once more, which again, is in the north of the map.

Visit the south-west most building here - it's in its own fenced off compound next to a large tower.

Inside this corner building are two monitors on a desk and the Intel location.


Warzone Season 5 is almost here! If you want to learn more about firepower from previously, we explain the best Welgun loadout, best Cooper Carbine loadout, best Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle loadout, best STG44 loadout, best MP40 loadout, best Automaton loadout, best BAR loadout, best Combat Shotgun loadout, best Type 100 loadout, and best Kar98k loadouts.


Warzone Fractured Intel location 7 explained

Once the sixth step is done, the seventh and final Fractured step will already completed.

There will be no text, though there will be an image which appears, hinting at next week's Intel:

Hope you enjoyed the storyline and the XP which comes with it. For us, we jumped three Battle Pass tiers (when taking into account playing each match as long as we could after every Intel found) so, this is not a bad return on your time!

Now you're done, you can move onto the Hunting the Enemy Intel set and Hidden Cargo Intel.
