Suppose we edit a page with the following content:

ABC{{ref|1}} BBB
==References==
{{references}}

Using VE, cite option we add additional ref so the output text will be:

ABC{{ref|1}} BBB<ref>{{Cite news...}}</ref>
==References==
{{references}}

Expected: references should show 2 citations,
Actual: it shows only the second (newly added) INSTEAD of the first

(I noticed this bug in hewiki, but the bug report uses English names for templates for clarity. For reproducing the bug in hewiki, use {{הערה}} instead of {{ref}} and {{הערות שוליים}} instead of {{references}})
