The death toll has been revised downward because they found the Muslims were counting the same people several times and including some of the same people as both civilian deaths and soldier deaths if they died in battle.

Norwegian researchers, hired by the ICTY, found overcounting.

For instance a Muslim who left his home town to join the Bosnian Muslim army and was transferred or lived in different places during the war years, would be counted if he eventually died, as a civilian in each of the places he lived and was registered. So you had some people counted in triplicate or even more.

What is the official count now? Not including soldiers or fighters.
