NATO-led invaders lost 566 service
members in 2011.
According to the figures by a causality
monitoring website
www.iCasualties. org, most of the fallen
soldiers were from the US and the UK.
Among the dead were 417 Americans,
45 Britons and 104 from other nations
On Aug. 6, 2011- thirty one US Special
Forces' members, were killed when a
helicopter shot down in the Tangi area
of Syedabad district in central Maidan
Wardak province.
In late October, 17 invaders were killed
in a bomb explosion on the Darul
Aman road in Kabul
Since the beginning of the war against
Afghans in Afghanistan more than 10
years ago, a total of 2,847 invading
soldiers, including 1,863 US, 394 British
and 590 from other countries have
been killed, the website said
At least 803 international soldiers,
including US and British, were killed in
southern Helmand province, the most
dangerous region for invaders. In
neighboring Kandahar, about 428
foreign soldiers have been killed over
the past 10 years, the statistics show.
At all it shows 21percent decline in the
fatalities compared to 711 deaths in
2010, and that is because invaders
mostly stayed confined to their
stations.
Currently, more than 133,000 invaders
from 50 countries, including nearly
100,000 US soldiers, are fighting the
small groups of Afghan Taliban under
the NATO-led ISAF command in
Afghanistan.
ISAF Media Operations Officer Brian
Badura said it was ISAF's policy not to
disclose specific numbers of coalition
casualties, but for more information
about casualties, each respective nation
should be contacted
“ We are not in a position to validate
the data reported by iCasualties as
ISAF's policy is not to discuss specific
casualty numbers,” he said of the
