[Claude] Report 2 covers the same Bulgarian highway pile-up in fog, with its death toll (10) being an earlier, lower figure than Report 1's 11, which is consistent with a rising count rather than a conflict.

[Claude, second read] Rates it MEDIUM, not HIGH. Fatal multi-vehicle crash with at least 10 dead; 5+ deaths would be high, but severity rule capped by reporting only at least 10 dead, which meets the 5-or-more. Lowered from HIGH to MEDIUM.
