Via Iraq Coalition Casualty Count:
Coalition soldiers killed in Iraq: 52. 42 American hostile fatalitis, 3 UK hostile fatalities, 7 non-hostile American fatalities.
September wounded U.S. soldiers: 283 as of September 17 (which would extrapolate to 499 if the death rate stayed constant).
Iraqi deaths (choose September):
Iraqi military/security killed: 233
Iraqi civilians killed: 640
The statistics are mostly lower than they have been or about the same as they have been for the past four or five months, except for the civilian deaths, which is the second hiughest it has been since Icasualties started keeping stats in March 2005, and would be the highest were it not for the single incident on August 31 that killed 965 people.
All in all, I don't think that thios month seems to represent much of a change in the insurgency one way or the other.
That is all.
