United States 3,027

Britain 129

Other nations 123

IRAQIS:

Military Between 4,900 and 6,375#

Civilians Between 54,062 and 59,688*

# = Think-tank estimates for military under Saddam Hussein killed during the 2003 war. No reliable official figures have been issued since new security forces were set up in late 2003.

* = From www.iraqbodycount.net (IBC), run by academics and peace activists, based on reports from at least two media sources. IBC says on its Web site that the figure underestimates the true number of casualties.
