Умышленное убийство или покушение на убийство солдата сослуживцем.
Fragging is the deliberate or attempted killing of a soldier, usually a superior, by a fellow soldier. U. S. military personnel coined the word during the Vietnam War, when such killings were most often committed or attempted with a fragmentation grenade, to make it appear that the killing was accidental or during combat with the enemy. The term fragging now encompasses any deliberate killing of military colleagues. The high number of fragging incidents in the latter years of the Vietnam War was symptomatic of the unpopularity of the war with the American public and the breakdown of discipline in the U. S. Armed Forces. Documented and suspected fragging incidents using explosives totaled 904 from 1969 to 1972, Most fragging incidents were in the Army and Marine Corps. Fragging was rare among Navy and Air Force personnel, who had less access to grenades and weapons than did soldiers and Marines. The U. S. military reflected social problems and issues in the U. S. such as racism, drug abuse, and resentment toward authoritarian leaders. As the U. S. began to withdraw its military forces from Vietnam, some American enlisted men and young officers lost their sense of purpose for being in Vietnam, and the hierarchical relationship between enlisted men and their officers deteriorated. The resentment directed from enlisted men toward older officers was exacerbated by generational gaps, as well as different perceptions of how the military should conduct itself. Enforcement of military regulations, especially if done overzealously, led to complaints and sometimes threats of physical violence directed toward officers. |

According to author George Lepre, the total number of known and suspected fragging cases using explosives in Vietnam from 1969 to 1972 totalled nearly 900, with 99 deaths and many injuries. This total is incomplete, as some cases were not reported, nor were statistics kept before 1969 (although several incidents from 1966 to 1968 are known). Most of the victims or intended victims were officers or non commissioned officers. The number of fraggings increased in 1970 and 1971 even though the U. S. military was withdrawing and the number of U. S. military personnel in Vietnam was declining. By the end of the war at least 450 officers were killed in fraggings, while the U. S. military reported at least 600 U. S. soldiers killed in fragging incidents with another 1,400 dying under mysterious circumstances. Fragging statistics include only incidents involving explosives, most commonly grenades. Several hundred murders of U. S. soldiers by firearms occurred in Vietnam but most were of enlisted men killing other enlisted men of nearly equal rank. Fewer than ten officers are known to have been murdered by firearms. However, rumors and claims abound of the deliberate killing of officers and non commissioned officers by enlisted men under battlefield conditions. The frequency and number of these fraggings, indistinguishable from combat deaths, cannot be quantified. The volunteer military moderated some of the coercive methods of discipline previously used to maintain order in military ranks. In 2012, according to NATO, 51 coalition service members died due to the deliberate actions from members of the Afghan forces. Another 65 NATO soldiers were killed in insider attacks between 2007 and 2011. The increase in so called "green on blue attacks" prompted U. S. officials to revamp the screening process of potential Afghan recruits as Afghan military leadership identified "hundreds" of Afghan soldiers within their ranks who were linked to the Taliban insurgency or harbored anti American views. Most of the attackers in these incidents were members of the special Afghan Local Police (ALP) units, who operated as a local tribal force and were known to have ties to the Taliban. They were are also known to use drugs and were sometimes reported for abusing civilians. The Long War Journal reported on such attacks, counting 155 since 2008 to June 11, 2017, resulting in 152 Coalition dead and 193 wounded. ANA fighters sometimes fled to the Taliban, which posted videos 'welcoming' the fleeing fighters. NATO commanders initially stated that an estimated 90% of the attacks were due to cultural differences and personal enmity, while the Afghan government disagreed and blamed the problem on "infiltration by foreign spy agencies", including those of "neighboring countries". 1718: Charles XII of Sweden was shot and killed during the siege of Halden; the shot was possibly fired by one of his own soldiers. 1777: Battle of Saratoga: Lieutenant Colonel Heinrich von Breymann of the Brunswick Army, the ranking officer of German Pro British forces as well as their Native American allies during the defeats at the Battle of Bennington and the Battle of Saratoga, was so disgusted with the performance of his men that he began attacking them with his sabre; one of the men, after being injured, pulled out a pistol and shot Lt. Col. von Breymann dead. 1815: Battle of Quatre Bras: The commander of the 92nd (Gordon Highlanders) Regiment of Foot, Colonel John Cameron of Fassfern, was shot and killed by a man whom he had recently flogged. 1894: Battle of the Yalu River: Admiral Ding Ruchang's legs were crushed, either due to a construction defect or the deliberate misfiring of his ship's main battery by the ship's captain. World War I: According to General Frank Percy Crozier, an unpopular British Army sergeant was killed when one of his men came up behind him and dropped an unpinned hand grenade down his trousers. February 1984: A Japan Ground Self Defense soldier went on a shooting spree by firing on his squadron on the target shooting range at Camp Yamaguchi: one was killed and three injured. July 6, 1999: U. S. infantry soldier Barry Winchell was beaten to death with a baseball bat while he slept outside of his barracks by Calvin Glover for dating a transgender woman. November 5, 2009: U. S. Army major and psychiatrist Nidal Hasan went on a shooting spree at Fort Hood that led to the deaths of 13 fellow soldiers and 32 being injured, before being shot and paralyzed from the waist down. On August 23, 2013, he was convicted of 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder, and was sentenced to death on August 28, 2013. May 28, 2012: A Kazakh border guard using his rifle and firing on his unit at Kazakh Chinese border resulted 15 killed. September 16, 2013: U. S. Navy petty officer Aaron Alexis went on a shooting spree at Washington Navy Yard using a Remington Model 870 shotgun and a Beretta M9 pistol; he killed 12 people and injured eight before being killed by a shot to the head from responding police officers. November 4, 2016: A Jordanian Army soldier stationed at the King Faisal Air Base in Jordan opened fire on American soldiers attempting to enter a checkpoint. The resulting shootout lead to the deaths of three American soldiers, and ended when another American soldier shot and critically wounded the Jordanian. The Jordanian was sentenced to life in prison. October 25, 2019: A Russian Army soldier gunned down eight people and injured two more during a shooting at the Gorny military base. October 15, 2022: Two Russian soldiers went on a shooting spree at Soloti military base using automatic rifles; they killed 11 people and injured 15 more before being killed by Spetsnaz operators. June 14, 2023: A Japan Ground Self Defense Force soldier shot three people in an ambush at the basic firing range in Gifu: two were killed and one were wounded.
Фрагинг — это умышленное убийство или покушение на убийство солдата, как правило, вышестоящего по званию, сослуживцем. Термин был придуман военнослужащими США во время войны во Вьетнаме, когда подобные убийства чаще всего совершались или предпринимались с использованием осколочной гранаты, чтобы создать впечатление случайности или боевого столкновения с противником. В настоящее время термин "фрагинг" охватывает любое преднамеренное убийство коллег по военной службе. Высокое число случаев фрагинга в последние годы войны во Вьетнаме было симптомом непопулярности войны среди американской общественности и разложения дисциплины в Вооруженных силах США. Задокументированные и предполагаемые случаи использования взрывчатых веществ составили 904 с 1969 по 1972 год, причем большинство происшествий было зафиксировано в армии и морской пехоте. Фрагинг был относительно редким явлением среди военно-морских и военно-воздушных сил, у которых был более ограниченный доступ к гранатам и оружию, чем у солдат и морских пехотинцев. Военные США отражали социальные проблемы и недостатки в США, такие как расизм, наркомания и недовольство авторитарными лидерами. По мере того, как США начали выводить свои войска из Вьетнама, некоторые американские солдаты и молодые офицеры утратили чувство цели своего пребывания во Вьетнаме, а иерархические отношения между рядовыми и офицерами ухудшились. Недовольство рядовых офицерами усугублялось разрывом поколений и различными взглядами на то, как должны вести себя вооруженные силы. Чрезмерно рьяное применение военных правил приводило к жалобам и иногда к угрозам физического насилия в отношении офицеров.

По словам автора Джорджа Лепре, общее число известных и предполагаемых случаев фрагинга с использованием взрывчатых веществ во Вьетнаме с 1969 по 1972 год составило почти 900 человек, включая 99 погибших и множество раненых. Эта цифра неполная, поскольку некоторые случаи не были зарегистрированы, а статистика не велась до 1969 года (хотя известно о нескольких инцидентах с 1966 по 1968 год). Большинство жертв или предполагаемых жертв были офицерами или унтер-офицерами. Количество случаев фрагинга увеличилось в 1970 и 1971 годах, несмотря на то, что американские войска выводились, и численность американского военного контингента во Вьетнаме сокращалась. К концу войны было убито по меньшей мере 450 офицеров в результате фрагинга, в то время как военные США сообщили о гибели по меньшей мере 600 американских солдат в результате фрагинга и еще 1400 погибших при загадочных обстоятельствах. Статистика фрагинга включает только инциденты с использованием взрывчатых веществ, чаще всего гранат. Во Вьетнаме произошло несколько сотен убийств американских солдат с применением огнестрельного оружия, но большинство из них были совершены солдатами, почти равными по званию. Известно, что менее десяти офицеров были убиты из огнестрельного оружия. Однако существует множество слухов и утверждений о преднамеренном убийстве офицеров и унтер-офицеров солдатами в условиях боевых действий. Частоту и количество этих случаев, которые трудно отличить от боевых потерь, невозможно точно оценить. Переход к профессиональной армии несколько смягчил принудительные методы поддержания дисциплины, ранее использовавшиеся в вооруженных силах. В 2012 году, по данным НАТО, 51 военнослужащий коалиционных сил погиб в результате преднамеренных действий афганских сил. Еще 65 солдат НАТО были убиты в результате нападений "своих" в период с 2007 по 2011 год. Увеличение числа так называемых "атак зеленых на синих" побудило американских чиновников пересмотреть процесс проверки потенциальных афганских новобранцев, поскольку афганское военное руководство выявило "сотни" афганских солдат в своих рядах, связанных с движением "Талибан" или придерживающихся антиамериканских взглядов. Большинство нападавших в этих инцидентах были членами специальных подразделений местной афганской полиции (ALP), которые действовали как местные племенные силы и, как известно, имели связи с "Талибаном". Они также употребляли наркотики и иногда злоупотребляли гражданскими лицами. The Long War Journal сообщал о таких нападениях, насчитывая 155 с 2008 года по 11 июня 2017 года, в результате которых погибло 152 военнослужащих коалиции и 193 получили ранения. Бойцы АНА иногда переходили на сторону "Талибана", который публиковал видеоролики с "приветствием" перебежчиков. Командование НАТО первоначально заявило, что около 90% нападений были вызваны культурными различиями и личной неприязнью, в то время как правительство Афганистана не согласилось с этим и обвинило проблему во "внедрении иностранных разведывательных служб", в том числе из "соседних стран".
Fragging is the deliberate or attempted killing of a soldier, usually a superior, by a fellow soldier. U. S. military personnel coined the word during the Vietnam War, when such killings were most often committed or attempted with a fragmentation grenade, to make it appear that the killing was accidental or during combat with the enemy. The term fragging now encompasses any deliberate killing of military colleagues. The high number of fragging incidents in the latter years of the Vietnam War was symptomatic of the unpopularity of the war with the American public and the breakdown of discipline in the U. S. Armed Forces. Documented and suspected fragging incidents using explosives totaled 904 from 1969 to 1972, Most fragging incidents were in the Army and Marine Corps. Fragging was rare among Navy and Air Force personnel, who had less access to grenades and weapons than did soldiers and Marines. The U. S. military reflected social problems and issues in the U. S. such as racism, drug abuse, and resentment toward authoritarian leaders. As the U. S. began to withdraw its military forces from Vietnam, some American enlisted men and young officers lost their sense of purpose for being in Vietnam, and the hierarchical relationship between enlisted men and their officers deteriorated. The resentment directed from enlisted men toward older officers was exacerbated by generational gaps, as well as different perceptions of how the military should conduct itself. Enforcement of military regulations, especially if done overzealously, led to complaints and sometimes threats of physical violence directed toward officers. |

According to author George Lepre, the total number of known and suspected fragging cases using explosives in Vietnam from 1969 to 1972 totalled nearly 900, with 99 deaths and many injuries. This total is incomplete, as some cases were not reported, nor were statistics kept before 1969 (although several incidents from 1966 to 1968 are known). Most of the victims or intended victims were officers or non commissioned officers. The number of fraggings increased in 1970 and 1971 even though the U. S. military was withdrawing and the number of U. S. military personnel in Vietnam was declining. By the end of the war at least 450 officers were killed in fraggings, while the U. S. military reported at least 600 U. S. soldiers killed in fragging incidents with another 1,400 dying under mysterious circumstances. Fragging statistics include only incidents involving explosives, most commonly grenades. Several hundred murders of U. S. soldiers by firearms occurred in Vietnam but most were of enlisted men killing other enlisted men of nearly equal rank. Fewer than ten officers are known to have been murdered by firearms. However, rumors and claims abound of the deliberate killing of officers and non commissioned officers by enlisted men under battlefield conditions. The frequency and number of these fraggings, indistinguishable from combat deaths, cannot be quantified. The volunteer military moderated some of the coercive methods of discipline previously used to maintain order in military ranks. In 2012, according to NATO, 51 coalition service members died due to the deliberate actions from members of the Afghan forces. Another 65 NATO soldiers were killed in insider attacks between 2007 and 2011. The increase in so called "green on blue attacks" prompted U. S. officials to revamp the screening process of potential Afghan recruits as Afghan military leadership identified "hundreds" of Afghan soldiers within their ranks who were linked to the Taliban insurgency or harbored anti American views. Most of the attackers in these incidents were members of the special Afghan Local Police (ALP) units, who operated as a local tribal force and were known to have ties to the Taliban. They were are also known to use drugs and were sometimes reported for abusing civilians. The Long War Journal reported on such attacks, counting 155 since 2008 to June 11, 2017, resulting in 152 Coalition dead and 193 wounded. ANA fighters sometimes fled to the Taliban, which posted videos 'welcoming' the fleeing fighters. NATO commanders initially stated that an estimated 90% of the attacks were due to cultural differences and personal enmity, while the Afghan government disagreed and blamed the problem on "infiltration by foreign spy agencies", including those of "neighboring countries". 1718: Charles XII of Sweden was shot and killed during the siege of Halden; the shot was possibly fired by one of his own soldiers. 1777: Battle of Saratoga: Lieutenant Colonel Heinrich von Breymann of the Brunswick Army, the ranking officer of German Pro British forces as well as their Native American allies during the defeats at the Battle of Bennington and the Battle of Saratoga, was so disgusted with the performance of his men that he began attacking them with his sabre; one of the men, after being injured, pulled out a pistol and shot Lt. Col. von Breymann dead. 1815: Battle of Quatre Bras: The commander of the 92nd (Gordon Highlanders) Regiment of Foot, Colonel John Cameron of Fassfern, was shot and killed by a man whom he had recently flogged. 1894: Battle of the Yalu River: Admiral Ding Ruchang's legs were crushed, either due to a construction defect or the deliberate misfiring of his ship's main battery by the ship's captain.

Война во Вьетнаме (американские войска)
1969: После вызвавших споры потерь американских войск в битве за Холм Гамбургера, подпольная газета G.I. "G.I Says" во Вьетнаме объявила вознаграждение в 10 000 долларов за полковника Уэлдона Ханикотта, что привело к нескольким неудачным попыткам его устранения с помощью осколочных гранат. 21 апреля 1969 года: в офис роты K, 9-го полка морской пехоты, на боевой базе Куанг Три, Южный Вьетнам, была брошена граната, в результате чего первый лейтенант Роберт Т. Роуэллер скончался от полученных ранений. Рядовой Реджинальд Ф. Смит, задержанный после того, как похвастался убийством сослуживцу во время построения, имея на пальце кольцо от гранаты, признал себя виновным в преднамеренном убийстве Роуэллера и был приговорен к 40 годам тюремного заключения; он был убит другим заключенным в тюрьме 25 июля 1982 года. 15 марта 1971 года: граната была брошена в офицерское помещение на базе Бьен Хоа, в результате чего погибли лейтенанты Томас А. Деллво и Ричард Э. Харлан из 1-й кавалерийской дивизии (воздушно-десантная). Рядовому Билли Дину Смиту было предъявлено обвинение в убийстве офицеров, но он был оправдан на военном суде в ноябре 1972 года. 25 декабря 1970 года рядовой Пол Реймонд "Рамон" Ферридей взял свою винтовку SLR и открыл огонь по сержантской столовой Королевского австралийского корпуса обслуживания в Нуи Дат, Южный Вьетнам, после целого дня употребления алкоголя: сержанты Аллан Брайан Мосс и Уоллес Джеймс Галвин были застрелены, а сержант Фредерик Эдвин Боутелл ранен. Во время военного суда армейский психиатр описал Ферридея как личность с "параноидальными чертами" и склонную к вспышкам ярости, хотя свидетели утверждали, что он осознавал свои действия и приводили подробности предыдущих конфликтных ситуаций с угрозами. Ферридей был признан виновным по двум пунктам обвинения в непредумышленном убийстве и одному – в нападении с применением оружия, отсидев восемь лет из десяти лет назначенного срока.
Поддержание мира на Ближнем Востоке
27 октября 1982 года рядовой ирландской армии Майкл МакАлеви, служивший в Тебнине в составе Временных сил Организации Объединенных Наций в Ливане, принял боевую стойку на контрольно-пропускном пункте, после чего открыл огонь из своей боевой винтовки FN FAL: капрал Грегори Морроу и рядовые Томас Мерфи и Питер Берк были убиты на месте. Рядовой МакАлеви заявил следователям ирландской военной полиции, что их убили ливанские вооруженные формирования, но впоследствии признался, объяснив это тем, что у него случился срыв из-за обезвоживания и теплового истощения. МакАлеви был признан виновным во всех трех убийствах на военном суде и приговорен к пожизненному заключению, условно-досрочно освобожден в 2010 году.
Неприятности
9 мая 1992 года: во время реконструкции базы безопасности Королевской полиции Ульстера (RUC), разрушенной всего за два дня до этого бомбой с трактора Временной ИРА в Фивемилтауне, графство Тайрон, когда солдаты из первого батальона Стаффордширского полка обеспечивали охрану рабочих, восемнадцатилетний рядовой в состоянии аффекта 14 раз выстрелил из своей винтовки SA80 в сержант-майора роты, убив его на глазах у всего взвода. В 1993 году военнослужащий был оправдан по обвинению в убийстве, но признан виновным в непредумышленном убийстве. Поступали сообщения о предыдущих издевательствах и травле со стороны некоммиссионного офицера в отношении его подчиненного. 20 января 2012 года: афганский солдат открыл огонь по французским солдатам, убив четверых и ранив пятнадцать, восемь из которых получили тяжелые ранения. Он был впоследствии арестован и признался, что его мотивом послужили опубликованные видеозаписи американских морских пехотинцев, мочившихся на тела убитых боевиков Талибана, и видеозапись издевательств британских солдат над афганскими мальчиком и девочкой. В результате этого инцидента президент Франции Николя Саркози пригрозил вывести все французские войска из Афганистана. 5 августа 2014 года: во время выступления высокопоставленной делегации коалиционных сил в Национальном университете обороны имени маршала Фахима афганский солдат открыл огонь по толпе из 90 представителей и военнослужащих коалиции, в результате чего погиб генерал-майор армии США Гарольд Дж. Грин и были ранены 14 других, в том числе офицер ВВС Германии Майкл Бартшер. Солдат был убит двумя военнослужащими коалиции на месте – одним датчанином и одним американцем.
Война в Ираке (американские войска)
