The UVF has killed more people than any other loyalist paramilitary group. Malcolm Sutton's ''Index of Deaths from the Conflict in Ireland'', part of the [[Conflict Archive on the Internet]] (CAIN), states that the UVF and RHC was responsible for at least 485 killings during the Troubles,<!--this includes killings claimed by the "Protestant Action Force" and "Protestant Action Group"--> and lists a further 256 loyalist killings that have not yet been attributed to a particular group.<ref name="Sutton"/> According to the book ''Lost Lives'' (2006 edition), it was responsible for 569 killings.<ref name=lostlives-stats>[[David McKittrick]] et al.
