Much of the fighting took place in the Afghan countryside. Various resistance groups received support from countries including the United States, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, China and the United Kingdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe war caused widespread destruction and immense loss of life. Estimates of Afghan deaths vary considerably, while millions of people fled as refugees, primarily to Pakistan and Iran.
