Respuesta :
The word underlined is "quelled", which has a more appropriate meaning is "muffle"
Further explanation
The word "quelled" is often used in accidents such as houses, forests, offices, etc.
Therefore the word "quelled" is not appropriate when used in sentences about riots. If a riot occurs, then the right word is "muffle" or "try to calm down". Because riots are identical with a group of people who are emotional and demanding or rejecting something they did not accept.

"quelled" can also be synonymous with "crushed"
Since the action contains force, simply "muffling" alone isn't quite enough. In order to put an end to rebellion, and when "quelled" is involved, the most sense to this forceful action would be crushed.
