The Battle of Fort Sumter, which marked the beginning of the American Civil War in April 1861, resulted in minimal casualties. There were no deaths during the bombardment itself; however, during the surrender ceremony, one soldier was accidentally killed, bringing the total to one death and several injuries. The conflict primarily involved artillery fire and did not lead to significant losses for either side.

None, although one of them came close.

And the only Union deaths were caused by one of their own cannon exploding as the US flag was lowered. Otherwise, Fort Sumter was a battle without casualties.
