WAR
DEAD & WOUNDED - ALL IN A SINGLE
DAY - SEPTEMBER 9,
2006
A compilation of news for a
single day... and totals for the month to date...
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: NATO and Afghan
forces using airstrikes, artillery
and mortars on Saturday killed
more than 30 suspected Taliban
militants in southern Afghanistan,
the alliance said. The casualties
were the latest reported in a weeklong
offensive against the Taliban in
Kandahar province's Panjwayi district,
and brings the number of suspected
militants reported dead by NATO
in the operation to at least 320.
Several Taliban compounds were
destroyed in the fighting, said
Maj. Scott Lundy, a NATO spokesman.
He said more than 30 militants
had been killed in the past 12
hours. NATO and Afghan forces suffered
no casualties, Lundy said. Reporters
cannot access the scene of the
battle, so it wasn't immediately
possible to verify the death toll.
Lundy said the casualty count was
based on reports from troops viewing
the battlefield through weapons
sights and other devices. |

| #2:
(editors note: True or not he
makes a good point. These are
the same body count tactics used
during Vietnam to report positive progress
when there's no way to prove
or disprove.) A top Taliban commander
and a spokesman for the militia
have strongly disputed NATO's
claims, saying the alliance should
show the bodies of those reported
killed to the media as proof. |

|
|
|
| #3:
More than 40 suspected Taliban
fighters and one Nato soldier
have been killed during fierce
fighting in southern Afghanistan,
the alliance said today. One
Nato soldier was killed today,
the alliance said in a statement.
The soldier’s nationality
was not released but Canadian
forces are leading the Panjwayi
push and have had at least five
soldiers killed since the operation
began. |

Officials in Pakistan say suspected
pro-Taleban militants have killed
an elderly tribal leader for
allegedly spying for U.S.-led
forces operating in neighboring
Afghanistan. The officials said
Saturday they found the bullet-riddled
body of Rahim Jan in the tribal
northwestern region of North
Waziristan. He was 70 years old. |
