The main report is by a NGO, Conflict Armament Research using open sources and on-site inspection. Their summary:Link:http://www.conflictarm.com/publications/This report is the result of more than three years of field investigation into Islamic State supply chains. It presents an analysis of more than 40,000 items recovered from the group between 2014 and 2017.
