How to read this database

  • Each record indicates its verification level. An "unverified" event is documented but not corroborated: it is published for the record, not as an established finding.
  • Official tolls and field tolls are presented side-by-side rather than merged into a single figure: the discrepancy between them is information in itself.
  • No witness identities are published. Public reports are reviewed before being published online.
  • The absence of an event in an area does not mean the absence of violence: it may reflect a lack of coverage or access.
