Two infantrymen from the Georgian national army this week. Another journalist this week.
Within the violence, the assault on Sahwas ("awakening") members continues (again, we have no systematic information from the USG, so ...). Iranian Coastguard makes the list for the first time I can recall. Beheadings in ... Anbar. Sadly, U.S. airstrikes show up noticeably. Mass graves out of the new this week...
IBC reports for April:
April Total: 1,334, including 66 children; 136 civilians were killed by US Forces.
With some luck (and free time) an update of enemy casualty lists.
