The Undersecretary for Defense and Security Affairs of Taiz Governorate, Major General Abdul Karim Al-Sabri, has said that Taiz governorate has suffered a lot from the indiscriminating planting of mines, which continues to bring tragedies and painful losses for Yemenis.
Al-Sabri indicated also that the militias spared no effort in planting mines of all sizes and forms in the various areas under their control, leaving a huge legacy of tragedies for Yemenis.
Al-Sabri claimed that mines have been planted in the various regions and governorates of Yemen, whether they were in Mawza, Bab al-Mandab, al-Khawkhah, the western coast, Taiz, or Jabal al-Habashi, with the aim of targeting the largest number of victims.
The undersecretary stated that Project Masam has played and is still playing a major role in securing many districts and governorates from landmines and educating people about the need to be aware of potentially deadly explosive devices, and suspicious and camouflaged objects.
According to Al-Sabri, Masam has left a ‘humanitarian print’ in Yemen.
