Inaccurate and tendentious categorisation of Israel-Hamas war

Grouping all of the wars Israel has been involved in since 1948 as one conflict is self-evidently non-factual, tendentious and deliberately intended to inflate the total casualty count (which itself is highly dubious; hundreds of thousands!? Add up the casualties in the 1948, 1956, 1967, 1973, 1982 and then other conflicts does not come close to 300,000). The total Arab casualties in all of the wars of the Arab-Israeli conflict in the Arab-Israeli conflict article is around 90,000. If you're actually saying Israel is a "belligerent in the Yemeni civil war", and then adding all of the deaths from that conflict (given Israel has not struck back at all and is not at war with Yemen or Houthis, and has not caused any deaths in Yemen) is so obviously biased, as is calling Israel a "belligerent" in what are, in fact, unlawful terror attacks by a non-state actor. I don't know how to do a signature here so sorry User:Idontknowhowtodothissorry -- 2 May 2024 2a02:6b6d:1338:0:fd31:8c17:3cf2:3a56

Time to update with UCDP data for 2023 and before

UCDP data for 2023 was published in 29 May 2024. See https://ucdp.uu.se/year/2023 . As usual, many numbers are lower than in this table.

Who has time to update the table? (I often have done it previous years). Tomastvivlaren (talk) 21:25, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Done. I interpreted "Cumulative fatalities" as by 1 January 2023. Correct? Can this date be written in the table headers?

I used the nts instead of ntsh template, because mistakes can easilty be done with hidden values.Tomastvivlaren (talk) 09:19, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Change the minimum estimate of those killed in the conflict in Ukraine to 120,000+

At the moment, according to the minimally recorded obituaries on both sides, the number of deaths should exceed 120 thousand people; the information in the article is outdated: 1) 54,000+ dead on the Russian side https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/11/casualties_eng 2) 46,000+ dead on the Ukrainian side https://ualosses.org/ 3) 10,000+ civilian deaths https://ukraine.un.org/en/253322-civilian-deaths-ukraine-war-top-10000-un-says 4) there is no point in proving the number of deaths before a full-scale war, I think these numbers are already in the public domain: approximately 14,000 people

You have some 100,000 victims listed, it can no longer be such a low estimate, I ask you to remove this

Islamic insurgency in russia

There has not been 0 casualties this year in the Islamic insurgence in the north caucuses. This is proven by the crocus city hall attack which was perpetrated by isis and killed 145 people. The recent Dagestan attack may have also been an Islamic state attack Huumas (talk) 08:28, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Can someone make Belarus yellow on the map?

Dozens of deaths a year from Partisan activity and border skirmishes, and they were a belligerant in the Russo-Ukrainian War by letting Russia have military access in Phase 1 and then supplying tanks and artillery since. 2604:3D09:1F80:CA00:E575:9A81:AA5A:A6A1 (talk) 18:15, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

Russia

Why is there no russia casulties data? I dont belive that they dont lose troops in the conflict since 2023 2001:16B8:CA03:4200:C4E0:2430:BE9B:B3A5 (talk) 19:30, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

I might be misunderstanding, but the statistics in the table already reflect combined Ukrainian + Russian casualties.

If you mean the "Deaths by country" section, it hasn't been updated for 2024 because the year isn't over. Clyde H. Mapping (talk) 04:58, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
