The Associated Press reported that there have been 4,316 U.S. military deaths in Iraq between March 2003 and June 26, 2009.

Iraqbodycount.org reports that about 100,000 Iraqi civilians have died from war related violence since the war began. The worst months for Iraqi civilian deaths were in March and April of 2003 at about 7,500 deaths for both months.
The same website says one in 160 of Baghdad’s 6.5 million population has been violently killed.

Various reports indicate that over 20,000 insurgents have been killed since the war began.

Many of the reports vary on the numbers for Iraqi civilians and insurgents killed. Numbers for U.S. deaths do not vary among the different reports.
