Grounded multi-video question answering over real-world news events requires systems to surface query-relevant evidence across heterogeneous video archives while attributing every claim to its supporting source. We introduce CRAFT (Critic-Refined Adaptive Key-Frame Targeting), a query-conditioned pipeline that combines dynamic keyframe selection, per-video ASR with multilingual fallback, and a hybrid critic loop to iteratively verify and repair claims before consolidation. The pipeline integrates UNLI temporal entailment, DeBERTa-v3 cross-claim screening, and a Llama-3.2-3B adjudicator, with a final citation-merging stage that emits each fact once with all supporting source identifiers. On MAGMaR 2026, CRAFT achieves the best overall average (0.739), reference recall (0.810), and citation F1 (0.635). We further evaluate on a MAGMaR-style conversion of WikiVideo with 52 non-overlapping event queries, where CRAFT also performs strongly (0.823 Avg), showing that its claim-centric evidence aggregation generalizes beyond MAGMaR. Ablations show that atomic claims, ASR, and the critic loop drive the main gains over the vanilla query-conditioned baseline. Code and implementation details are publicly available at this https URL.
