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.

#1: Taliban militants have occupied two districts in the insurgent southern provinces of Helmand and Zabul, local officials told Xinhua Thursday. The districts are Garmser in Helmand and Arghandab in Zabul, which have been under mounting Taliban pressure over the past months. "Taliban captured the center of Garmser and we have relocated the district headquarters," said Mohammad Nabi Mullahkhil, the provincial police chief. Meanwhile, Noor Mohammad Paktin, Zabul's police chief, said both district chief and police chief of Arghandab have resigned due to unknown reasons and that the Taliban has entered the district center. The Taliban's purported spokesman Qari Yusuf Ahmadi claimed that militants have captured both the districts and hoisted their flags there. No high-ranking officials were immediately available in Afghan capital Kabul to make comments on the incidents.
