el #,
I've (re)read the whole thing and I didn't see anyone posting an update from any other source as to this (significant) change in status of casualties so I thought to put it up as a new piece of info, and I merely said "the BBC" to state my source; it's not a Spanish source because my Spanish isn't very good.
In this sort of news story, who gets the word out first can vary more with whether or not someone's sub-editor is on a teabreak
rather than who has the info first, since the news will travel very fast.
