Sudan's War Leaves Khartoum with Dangerous Unexploded Mines, Threatening Residents
In Khartoum, Sudan, the aftermath of three years of war has left the city littered with unexploded land mines and other ordnance, posing a significant threat to returning residents. The conflict, primarily between Sudan's army and the Rapid Support Forces, has resulted in numerous injuries and fatalities, particularly among children. According to the United Nations, nearly 60 people were injured or killed in Khartoum state last year, with over half being children. The presence of these unexploded devices is a major concern, as they are scattered across an area equivalent to 7,700 football fields. Efforts to clear these dangerous remnants are ongoing, with demining teams working meticulously to remove and destroy the ordnance. However, the process is slow, and the threat remains significant as people attempt to rebuild their lives in the war-torn city.
