A significant drop in the number of victims of terrorism in Iraq in 2017
2018-01-19
A report published by the Jane's Center for Research on Terrorism and Rebellion said that last year Iraq and Syria witnessed a significant drop in the number of victims of terrorism.

Despite the ongoing violence in the two countries, the death toll from attacks by terrorist organizations has been reduced in the form of an encouraging organization, the report said.

In Iraq, 3,778 people were killed in the terrorist attacks of 2017 against 8437 in 2016, a decrease of 60%.

In Syria, the number of victims of terrorism declined by 44% during the same period, with 3,641 people killed in terrorism and insurgency in 2017 compared to 6,477 in 2016.

The report pointed out that despite the decrease in the number of deaths in Syria and Iraq, the pace of terrorism and insurgency in these countries is still high and unparalleled in the world.
