Homicide needs to be defined- if homicide means death by another human, it is too vague. If it means murder or other unlawful killing, then it is relevant.

The numbers change dramatically if the latter.

Here is the definition from the source:

List of countries by intentional homicide rate per year per 100,000 inhabitants. The reliability of underlying national murder rate data may vary.[1] The legal definition of “intentional homicide” differs among countries. Intentional homicide may or may not include infanticide, assisted suicide or euthanasia.[2]
