Also, how many were killed directly by God?
Please do not include people killed by other people because God told them to.

I think the beginning of Job is the only case of the devil killing people. He killed Job's children. God, on the other hand, has killed lots and lots of people. He killed all those people in the flood. I don't know how many that would be, but it's a lot more than the devil.

Zilch, zero, none killed by the Devil in the Bible and none killed directly by God, unless one wants to include Lot's wife. However, I have never witnessed anyone turning into a pillar of salt and find this hard to imagine.
The only others that could possibly be killed because of Lucifer and Satan are the celestial beings who followed them and did not repent. Gabriel wants them to be extinguished. However, these are not human people.

None, but through influence by his character we have, humans that is, killed many. We must take responsibility about the things we do. If we follow Gods Word, we will be just fine.

I think a better question is how many people have died because of the bible?
The "god" you refer to has no physical hand in this realm so there for it is impossible it could have directly terminated their existence.
If you are referring to "acts of nature/god" then I would suggest you do research on your desired topic. The internet is full of wonderful resources.

I am not a Bible fanatic, but I am going to guess at this...... In the old testament GOD destroyed the earth with a flood and only 9 survived. So I imagine hundreds, maybe millions died at that time.

God does not allow the devil to kill people. God killed or had killed many people due to their evilness or disobedience. Can you believe that people actually think God will not punish them when He has proven it over and over.

The body count from the stories of Noah has been undetermined.
The devil did NOT kill anyone.

God destroyed the entire human population in Genesis....
And he also destroyed two cities...
And being killed by Satan is an indirect term.......
Anyone killed by another person can be called killed by Satan, because Satan prompts murderers....
And the number killed by God is unknown....
