The record at the time
Taken together, the supplied material supports the main development in the headline and the specific details above. It does not establish what happened after 2026-06-01, and no later outcome is inferred here. The report therefore preserves the event-date framing, attributes the account to the available evidence and avoids turning an early figure or stated plan into a settled result. Further official data, technical findings or independent reporting could refine the picture, but those materials were not part of this packet.
