The United Nations says civilian casualties are on the rise in Afghanistan, with insurgents increasingly responsible for harming Afghans.

In a report issued Tuesday in Kabul, the U.N. said the number of civilians killed or wounded in the conflict rose 31 percent during the first half of this year.

Those figures include nearly 1,300 deaths and 2,000 wounded civilians.

The U.N. says anti-government forces are responsible for 76 percent of the casualties, up from 53 percent last year. The report attributed 12 percent of the casualties to U.S., NATO and other pro-government forces.
