Revision as of 15:37, 18 July 2019

For other incidents in 2019, and an outline of what is excluded from or included in this list, see List of terrorist incidents in 2019.

This is a list of some of the terrorist, alleged terrorist or suspected terrorist incidents which took place in July 2019, including incidents by violent non-state actors for political, religious, or ideological motives.

Guidelines

  • Types of incidents must be reflected by at least one clearly reliable source unambiguously defining the event as terrorism and must comply with the guidelines outlined in the manual of style under WP:TERRORISM.
  • Casualties figures in this list are the total casualties of the incident including immediate casualties and later casualties (such as people who succumbed to their wounds long after the attacks occurred).
  • Casualties listed are the victims. Perpetrator casualties are listed separately (e.g. x (+y) indicate that x victims and y perpetrators were killed/injured).
  • Casualty totals may be underestimated or unavailable due to a lack of information. A figure with a plus (+) sign indicates that at least that many people have died (e.g. 10+ indicates that at least 10 people have died) – the actual toll could be considerably higher. A figure with a plus (+) sign may also indicate that over that number of people are victims.
  • If casualty figures are 20 or more, they will be shown in bold. In addition, figures for casualties more than 50 will also be underlined.
  • Incidents are limited to one per location per day. If multiple attacks occur in the same place on the same day, they will be merged into a single incident.
  • In addition to the guidelines above, the table also includes the following categories:
  0 people were killed/injured by the incident.
  1–19 people were killed/injured by the incident.
  20–49 people were killed/injured by the incident.
  50–99 people were killed/injured by the incident.
  100+ people were killed/injured by the incident.
