Muslim vs. Muslim violence in the 21st century: 12.5 million dead -----------------------------------------------------------------
Q. Putting aside the conflicts with Israel: how many Arabs/Muslims died in
this century in wars with Arabs/Muslims? Not just directly, but also as a result of famine and forced displacement caused by these wars.
A. Since the turn of the century, the death toll from internal conflicts within the Arab and Muslim world has reached staggering heights, with some comprehensive
estimates suggesting that as many as 12.5 million people have perished when accounting for both direct violence and the catastrophic indirect effects of war.
The Syrian Civil War alone has claimed over 614,000 lives, while the conflict in
Yemen resulted in roughly 377,000 deaths by 2022, nearly 60% of which were caused by famine and disease rather than combat. In Sudan, the current civil war
has seen estimates rise toward 400,000 deaths, with a heartbreaking projected loss of over 520,000 children due to malnutrition-related causes by late 2025. When combined with the high numbers of casualties in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Somalia-where the collapse of healthcare systems and deliberate blockades of
food and water have turned treatable conditions into fatal ones-the total number
of Muslims and Arabs who have died in these intra-faith or intra-ethnic power struggles far exceeds those lost in any other contemporary global conflict.
