Under 22 U.S.C. 2729, when possible, the Department of State must collect and post on the Department's Bureau of Consular Affairs Internet site certain details about each United States citizen who dies in a foreign country from a non-natural cause. 

It reports: 

• Date of death
• Place of death
• Cause of death 

If the death was due to terrorism, the report will say that. The U.S. Citizens Deaths Abroad from Non-Natural Deaths lists the information by country and covers deaths in the preceding three calendar years. We update the information every six months.

Deaths marked as “undetermined/unknown” have been reported to the Department of State as non-natural deaths. Local authorities have not provided more detail.
