The peak years of the Northern Ireland Conflict were between 1971 and 1976, where there were over 100 conflict-related deaths each year, exceeding 450 deaths in 1972 alone. The vast majority of these deaths were of civilians (including paramilitaries), and over 50 percent of deaths were of civilians not recorded as being involved in paramilitary activity. British security forces were the primary target of republican paramilitaries during the Troubles, and these made up over half of all casualties in some years, such as 1979 - this was the year of the Warrenpoint Ambush, where 18 soldiers were killed by two roadside bombs during what was the deadliest attack on British security during the conflict. While the Troubles is widely considered to have ended in 1998, ongoing paramilitary activity activities, such as organized crime, retaliatory attacks, and vigilantism, saw the deaths of many more people in the decades that followed.
