Wonder if there is a correlation between Afghani deaths due to Nato actions, and 'insurgent' attacks.
The documents reveals, among other matters, that compared to a year ago, there has been a 64% increase in insurgent attacks, an 80% increase in IED attacks, a 90% increase in attacks on the Afghan government based in Kabul, and that ISAF (which is mainly comprised of US forces) deaths were up 55%, but recorded civilian deaths were down 44%.
The maps reveal attack frequency ("kinetic events") and many other important statistics about the war, including destruction of opium crops. It should be noted that the statistics are likely chosen, with some exceptions, to produce a positive image.
