2010 has become the deadliest year for Afghan civilians since it began nine years ago the war between the Taliban and international forces, with 2,800 deaths, of which three quarters were killed by insurgents, as announced by the UN . This figure shows that, despite claims by military and government officials of the international coalition, the Taliban insurgency is intensifying, and even gaining ground in recent years, guerrilla actions beyond its traditional strongholds the south and east.
The most important thing is that the UN report was published a few months after Washington and NATO announced the withdrawal of international troops in 2014, and the total transfer of responsibility for national security in the hands of Afghan forces. 2777 is the exact number of civilians killed in 2010.
A figure aumetó 15% compared to 2009, according to the joint annual report of the Mission of the UN Assistance in Afghanistan (UNAMA). The insurgents, the Taliban and other fundamentalist groups, are directly responsible for killing 75% of civilians, against 16% who were killed by Afghan and international forces, the report said.
Suicide bombings and roadside bombs, the weapon of choice for the Taliban, killed 1,141 civilians in 2010, while air strikes Afghan and international forces killed 171. The NATO force (ISAF), led by Americans, is accused of killing at least 65 civilians on two occasions in late February in Kunar province (east) and nine children on March 1.
Finally, the UNAMA report also notes that the number of civilians killed in 2010 is four times greater than that of international soldiers killed in action in the same year.
