Definition

Intentional homicides per 100,000 people: unlawful deaths inflicted on a person with the intent to cause death or serious injury. World Bank series from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

Excludes deaths in armed conflict. Countries record and classify killings differently, and not every country reports every year, so coverage is uneven.
