Afghanistan: Deaths in one-sided violence against civilians

26deaths · 2025-85.6% since 2015

Civilians killed deliberately by a government or organised group. Summed from UCDP's events by country and year (best estimate). Events in Gaza and the West Bank, which UCDP files under Israel, are counted under West Bank and Gaza. From a country's first recorded event onward, a year with no events is zero. Annual figures for Afghanistan from 1989 to 2025.
