2 indexed fatal people · 2 indexed serious non-fatal events. Reviewed 11 October 2026.
This calendar period has ended; the incomplete register remains open to late reports and corrections. This is an incomplete, nonprobability public-source register. It cannot estimate national incidence, prevalence or perpetrator distributions and must not be used to rank countries.
Counting note: fatal figures count people; serious non-fatal figures count distinct events. These are different units and should not be added together. See Methods & Data Dictionary →
