The report of the inquiry was published on 15 June 2010.

The report concluded, " The firing by soldiers of 1 PARA on Bloody Sunday caused the deaths of 13 people and injury to a similar number, none of whom was posing a threat of causing death or serious injury.

" Saville stated that British paratroopers " lost control ", fatally shooting fleeing civilians and those who tried to aid the civilians who had been shot by the British soldiers.

The report stated that British soldiers had concocted lies in their attempt to hide their acts.

Saville stated that the civilians had not been warned by the British soldiers that they intended to shoot.

The report states, contrary to the previously established belief, that no stones and no petrol bombs were thrown by civilians before British soldiers shot at them, and that the civilians were not posing any threat.
