Apologies - it is indeed the press release concerning the report sent - as per regs - to ICAO. Though the prerss release does contain a summary of findings so far, there's no obligation for the Chinese to publish the actual submitted report, and ICAO can only do so if the submitting power asks.

It is a tad odd that the Madarin and English press release summaries of the report have some small but significant differences (which I had not spotted!). My sense of course would be that the Mandarin is the better version, and the AV Herald summary of the that report is (so far as I can tell) pretty accurate as to its contents. Either the "official" English version is simply slightly incorrect (which, even in China, is not unknown!) or we must await news of any significance in the differences.
