These daily logs detail some of the many dead and wounded in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, both military and civilian, of all nationalities. We are not aware of any source that authoritatively and consistently compiles or counts these kinds of reports.

Note: These news reports overlap in some cases. We've done our best to count a casualty only once. Where vague reports suggest "many" "some" or "several" we count a minimum of 2. The following news links were compiled by Evan D.
