Women in the US army are more likely to be killed by fellow servicemen than enemy combatants,
according to an analysis by the Intercept.

This found:
“Between 2011 and August 2025,
at least 41 women died by homicide in the Army
– more than half of them at the hands of other service members or veterans.”

The analysis further noted “that active-duty Army women face a higher risk of homicide than male soldiers,
the opposite of national and global trends”.
