DAMASCUS, Jan 4 (Xinhua) -- Around 380,636 people were documented to have been killed during the nearly nine-year war in Syria, a war monitor said Saturday.
The death toll includes civilians, government soldiers, rebel fighters and foreign troops, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
A total of 66,620 government troops, 51,594 pro-government fighters, 8,245 pro-government foreign fighters, and 1,682 fighters of the Lebanese Hezbollah group during the war, the Britain-based watchdog said.
Meanwhile, 115,490 civilians, 111 Turkish soldiers, 67,395 jihadis and Islamic State militants, 66,457 rebel fighters, 417 unknown fighters, and 2,625 army deserters were among the killed.
However, the Observatory said the death toll of the U.S.-led anti-terror coalition is unavailable because of the extreme tight-lip policy in the coalition.
