Description"About 13,000 Iraqis, including as many as 4,300 civilians, were killed during the major combat phase of the Iraq war, according to a US research group.
It said the estimates were based on US combat data, battlefield press reports, and Iraqi hospital surveys.

Despite the advent of precision weapons, more civilians died in the latest conflict than in the 1991 war, the group suggests.

The US military has published no details on Iraqi deaths in either war.

The study by the Project on Defense Alternatives (PDA) covers the period from 19 March to the end of April."
