SANA provides a ceremony account and photographs; the governor and religious authorities are claimants for the mosque's renewed role. Anadolu's October 8 account relies on Syrian state television, so it is not independent corroboration. No independent restoration-quality assessment was inspected; no duration-of-closure claim is made. October 8 is the reported reopening date; noon UTC is a date-only placeholder, not a known ceremony time.
