At least 162,000 people have been killed in Syria\'s three-year-old conflict, a monitoring group said on Monday, and thousands more are missing after being captured by President Bashar al-Assad\'s forces and rebels trying to overthrow him.
The pro-opposition, British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said losses among fighters on the government side were higher than those among pro-rebel groups, and estimated that at least 54,000 civilians had been killed since the conflict began.
It estimated 62,800 deaths among the army, pro-Assad Syrian militia, Lebanese Hezbollah fighters and other foreign Shi\'ite gunmen.
That compared with 42,700 people who had died on the rebel side, including fighters from al Qaeda\'s Nusra Front, other Islamist brigades, and soldiers who defected from Assad\'s army.
Nearly 3,000 people of unknown identity or affiliation had been killed, it said.
The Observatory said all sides in the conflict played down their losses, making an accurate count almost impossible, and the overall death toll was probably around 70,000 higher at 230,000.

With less than 2 months to go until the Afghan presidential election, the country is gripped by an unprecedented level of election coverage from Afghanistan\'s own media. 

At the heart of this will be the first election in Afghanistan, where all of the key candidates take part in live debates. We\'re given exclusive access behind the scenes of 1TV\'s first live presidential debate, to see how political journalism and the country\'s media landscape has developed and changed in the last 13 years. The elections may well be fought on the issues of security, the economy and radicalism, but it is members of the young, educated local press which are driving the most hotly contested Afghan elections in modern times.

The pro-opposition, British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said losses among fighters on the government side were higher than those among pro-rebel groups, and estimated that at least 54,000 civilians had been killed since the conflict began. It estimated 62,800 deaths among the army, pro-Assad Syrian militia, Lebanese Hezbollah fighters and other foreign Shi'ite gunmen. That compared with 42,700 people who had died on the rebel side, including fighters from al Qaeda's Nusra Front, other Islamist brigades, and soldiers who defected from Assad's army. Nearly 3,000 people of unknown identity or affiliation had been killed, it said. The Observatory said all sides in the conflict played down their losses, making an accurate count almost impossible, and the overall death toll was probably around 70,000 higher at 230,000.
