What we have are reports and claims of events that people can't explain. Do you know of any evidence of a such an event that you find convincing and inexplicable? I don't.

The original Out Lady of Fatima incident (the miracle of the sun) is still unexplained, and too large to be coincidence. I don't find it convincing, but it certainly remains evidence in favor of miracles.

Not really. See my comment here

Present accounts of Fatima happenings come from very few, very biased sources. Those sources, for examples, omit the fact that also a portion of people present saw nothing.
Also, account from different witnesses vary a lot from one another.
