On the Meiji Japan and post-Soviet Russia map as “Afghanistan’s dead”
1979–1989 — Estimates put Afghan deaths in the Soviet war between about half a million and 2 million, most of them civilians. Some 5 million people, about a third of the population, fled to Pakistan and Iran. The Soviet departure did not end the fighting.
