Scope & reporting context

Issued 3 November 2026, reviewing reporting from 1–3 November. Includes reconstruction, city-reference maps, a reporting chronology, claim audit and eight numbered sources. The Banias bombing account remains an allegation; the retrieved primary SANA statement names Homs. The operation date, precise target and claimed interdiction details remain unresolved. Maps show localities rather than verified incident positions, and repeated publication of an authority’s account is not treated as independent corroboration.

The complete PDF contains the report’s source register, assessments and limitations. Read those alongside any individual finding.
