WORKED HISTORICAL STARTING POINT
Event: March 25, 2002, Nahrin area, Baghlan province, Afghanistan.
IFRC Bulletin 1, March 26: relief stocks available for planned dispatch.
IFRC Bulletin 4, April 5: later reporting on distributions and rehabilitation.
USGS map, April 15: event identity and aftershock sequence through April 12.
These entries describe reporting stages. They do not establish a final casualty
total or confirm every shipment mentioned in an earlier plan.

READING CHECK
Available stock -> planned dispatch -> dispatch -> receipt -> distribution -> use.
Keep each report's actual verb. Later stages require their own evidence.
Do not add overlapping counts such as people affected and patients treated.
