News - Yemen: The victims of cluster bombs have reached more than 25,000 civilians since the beginning of the US-Saudi aggression on Yemen in 2015.

The Director of the Executive Center for Mine Action, Brigadier General Ali Safra, pointed out that the support and resources allocated to field clearance do not reach the level of 2% of what is required to be cleaned.

Brigadier-General Safra stated that Hodeidah, Al-Baidha'a, Marib, Al-Jawf, Nihm and Sa'ada are the most infested areas for mines and bombs, in which the aggression used the most deadly and latest military technology in our country. He explained that the Center is continuing to work to clear areas contaminated and affected by the bombs and mines of the US-Saudi aggression, pointing out that mines and remnants - especially cluster bombs - have become a national issue and a societal problem that must be disposed.

It is noteworthy that the Executive Center for Mine Action announced the discovery of 544 mines and cluster bombs left over from the aggression during the first week of January 2022.
