The Saudi project for demining in Yemen MASAM removed 1658 landmines planted by the Iran-backed Houthi militia in different areas of Yemen.

MASAM said it removed those landmines in different parts of Yemen “during the second week of this November.”

Over the past two years, MASAM has removed 105 thousand landmines and hundreds of thousands of landmines remain a cause of continuous civilian casualties. Thousands of Yemenis have either been killed or lost limbs as a result.
