UK military deaths in Afghanistan
The UK's military role in Afghanistan since 2001 has brought with it a heavy human toll. Members of the Army, RAF, Royal Marines and special forces have lost their lives in the fight against the Taliban. Here, the BBC News website offers a look at who they were and how they died.
The number of deaths stands at 444 after three soldiers died on 30 April when their vehicle was hit by an improvised explosive device in Helmand Province.
