Masam Project Clears 915 Explosives in Yemen
The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) Masam Project, which focuses on mine clearanc e in Yemen, cleared 915 explosives during the third week of August, the Saudi Press agency reported Monday.
The cleared items included 880 unexploded ordnance, 14 improvised explosive devices, 13 anti-tank mines and 8 anti-personnel mines. This brought the monthly total to 2,939, while the cumulative number removed since the project’s launch has reached 510,527.
These mines were planted randomly across Yemeni territory, posing a severe threat to civilians—particularly children, women and the elderly—and spreading fear in peaceful communities.
