Includes reconstruction, a reporting chronology, a casualty audit, attribution limits, regional and local reference maps, evidence priorities and 11 numbered sources. Maps identify the village rather than a verified church or attack point. The report distinguishes official terrorism descriptions from proven group involvement; no substantiated IED finding is adopted. Restricted imagery was omitted, and the PDF preserves the source-access and reporting limitations.
