💨 Abstract

In Syria since the fall of Bashar Assad's government last year, land mines and unexploded remnants of war have increased, causing widespread casualties and harm. The surge is particularly noticeable among displaced people returning to former front-line areas. Since Dec. 8, land mines have killed at least 249 people, including 60 children, and injured over 370, according to an aid worker safety organization.
