Claim 1: “The recovery, carried out over roughly two weeks by a 40-person team, was made possible by the ceasefire that has allowed crews access to previously unreachable areas.”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While the recovery of bodies is confirmed, the specific details regarding a '40-person team' and the 'two-week' timeframe facilitated by a 'ceasefire' are not mentioned in the provided evidence. The search results for '40' were generic and not related to the rescue operation.
