💨 Abstract

In Syria, four months after the end of the 14-year civil war, Suleiman Khalil was harvesting olives when he stepped on a landmine, losing his right leg. The Syrian soil still contains deadly remnants from the war, leading to a surge in landmine casualties, particularly in rural Idlib. Landmines are a daily hazard for farmers, causing death, injury, and long-term psychological trauma.
