    For children, surely top 5. Rwanda and Yemen, the USA’s caused deaths in Iraq due to the power vacuum they created are higher though.

    Perhaps they aren’t killed in the same numbers in Ukraine, but mass kidnapping and relocation to Russia is pretty shit too.

      Maybe all war is horrible, and should be used as a very last resort to save civilian lives. Maybe people should just be allowed to live their lives in peace.

      Yemen is in their chart.

      The key here is that they are comparing the per day figures.

      This conflict is not yet over. If it lasts as long as the one in Yemen, at this rate it would kill 347,380 children.
