Edit links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a partial list of Afghan security forces killed in the War in Afghanistan (2001–2021).

Besides serving as an indicator of some of the numbers of policemen, soldiers and private military contractors (PMCs) deaths during specific time periods, this article allows readers to investigate the circumstances of those deaths by reading the citation articles.

By mid-October 2009, overall it was confirmed that more than 5,500 soldiers and policemen were killed since the start of the war.[1] In early March 2014, the number was updated to 13,729. Another 16,511 soldiers and policemen were wounded. Among the dead were 4,551 soldiers who died by 20 March 2013.[2] The number of soldiers killed was updated to 6,835 by September 20, 2014.[3] In 2017 casualty figures of the ANSDF became classified information.[4]

Based on the numbers below, in the Afghan Defense and Interior Ministry section figures, by December 31, 2014, 21,008 soldiers and policemen had been killed since June 2002. According to Neta C. Crawford, a Professor of Political Science at Boston University and Co-Director of the Costs of War Project, an estimated 23,470 security forces members, including 14,200 policemen and 7,750 soldiers, had been killed since the start of the war until the end of 2014.[5] Additionally, 28,529 policemen and soldiers were reported killed in the period between January 2015 and mid-November 2018,[6] but this was later revised to over 45,000 fatalities for the period between the end of September 2014 and late January 2019.[7] The Turkish Anadolu Agency reported that, according to declassified figures, an estimated 7,000 Afghan security forces were killed during 2019.[8] Additionally, between 29 February and 21 July 2020, about 3,560 soldiers were killed.[9] Crawford also presented a new updated estimate of 66,000–69,000 dead for the whole war, up to April 2021,[10] and 69,095 dead by August 2021.[11] In addition, right after the end of the war, Afghan general Sami Sadat confirmed 66,000 troops were killed during the 20 years of conflict,[12] while general Yasin Zia, former Chief of General Staff of Afghanistan and Acting Defence Minister, reported to The Washington Post that Afghan security forces counted 92,000 killed members since 2001, citing data he collected.[13] According to Zia, the last days of the war, from July 1 to August 15, were particularly deadly with 4,000 troops killed and 1,000 missing.[13]
