WHAT THE EDITOR DID

WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: Delete the unsupported chronology used to reconcile the differing death tolls. - "An earlier Dhaka Tribune headline reported five fatalities, but subsequent accounts from several outlets placed the death toll at 10.": The source material does not establish that the Dhaka Tribune headline was earlier than the reports giving a death toll of 10.
