Contradiction about information regarding the e-mail

The Incident section mentions this:

The information later obtained from the email server by the Fact-Finding Investigation Team of the International Civil Aviation Organization showed that such an email had been sent to Minsk Airport at 09:56 (12:56 local).
This message was sent to a total of six recipients in separate emails to the airports of Vilnius, Athens, Sofia, Bucharest, Kyiv and Minsk, with the first five sent while FR4978 was flying over Ukrainian airspace, immediately prior to entering Belarusian airspace.

Later in the article, in the Aftermath/Belarusian Government section, I observe contradiction:

Journalists discovered that the e-mail published by Belarusian authorities had been received at 12:57, 24 minutes after Belarusian air traffic control notified the Ryanair flight of the bomb threat.

The latter statement implies that the e-mail has only arrived after the plane has been diverted, while the former statement lists instances of the e-mails arriving into other inboxes prior to the diversion incident.

The contradiction appears minor due to the article's focus on Belarus rather than the other countries lightly mentioned, but it was enough to slightly bug me. Swedish Win (talk) 00:13, 13 April 2025 (UTC)
