Humanitarian
questions remain.

Displacement, safety, rehabilitation, education, healthcare, livelihoods and reconciliation require dated, geographically specific evidence. No current casualty or displacement total is published without a reconciled reporting date and denominator.

This initial chronology is not an exhaustive account of the conflict or a conclusion about responsibility. Detailed local reporting, community perspectives, court developments and events after 5 October 2026 remain research gaps.
