Contractors

Private foreign contractors and other foreign civilian workers killed in Afghanistan in 2011.

Please note, we are still researching this section which is quite a challenge as not all foreign fatalities are reported in the press. We include here private military/security contractors and foreign civilian fatalities. This list does not include journalists or aid workers - these are listed on their own pages.

If you have any information concerning Private Military or Civilian contractors who have died in Afghanistan, and who are not listed here, please let us know. Contact us here
