I have added the Cleanup press release notice because this article appears to be structured as news report. While the lead section that introduces an article is written in a summary style, this is not a news story lede. Wikipedia articles should answer the reader's basic questions, such as "Who?", "What?", "When?", "Where?" and "Why?" at the beginning of an article, before going into details. The fact that this event is part of a larger conflict that has been going on since 2015 should be made at the beginning, not the end of the article. Encyclopedic articles also tend to proceed forward in time, setting the context up front, without later flashbacks, this is the opposite to how a news story might be written, which teases the reader with one or two significant facts up front and gradually divulges more information the longer a reader continues reading. Instead, an encyclopedic article provides an overview summary and then drills down into the details of each aspect of the topic. Section headings then also allow the reader the option to skip to the detailed part they are most interested in, without missing out on, or not understanding, the basics of the topic. Well that is the idea, at least. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 22:29, 24 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
