Relief Center's project for clearing mines (Masam) in Yemen demined 1,092 mines during the first week of July 2020, including 3 antipersonnel mines, 298 anti-tanks, 744 unexploded ordnance and 17 explosive devices.
Since the beginning of the project, as many as 172,823 mines have been dismantled after they had been planted by the Iran-backed Houthi militias.
The vast number of land mines poses a threat to Yemeni people and their safety as they continue to claim lives, cause serious injuries or amputation of children, women and the elderly.
