Update: 2024-11-14
Description
Explosive remnants of war, including artillery shells, rockets, and improvised explosive devices (IEDs), pose a grave threat to civilians everywhere – but especially children in Gaza, now and in the years ahead, according to the Chief of Programme Management with the UN Mine Action Service (UNMAS).
Taku Kubo spoke with UN News about the challenges these hazards present for long-term recovery and reconstruction in the region.
Despite ongoing conflict and resource constraints, UNMAS has conducted close to 400 explosive hazard assessments and accompanied more than 270 humanitarian convoys as part of the aid effort.
Mr. Kubo spoke to UN News’s Abdelmonem Makki.
