Yes, definitely more lethal in the location of the detonation. Theoretically, you would not get metal shrapnel from the bomb or shell casing flying hundreds of metres away from the lethal blast zone. Glass shards and masonry fragments go less than half as far as metal, and penetrate less deeply into flesh. If civilians weren't being deliberately targeted, they might have a lower risk of being accidentally killed or wounded.

That's a lot of "if"'s and "might"'s, of course.
