Project Masam has announced that its teams cleared 1,033 explosive items across Yemen so far in December 2025, as part of its nationwide mission to remove landmines and explosive remnants of war from liberated areas.
This month-to-date total includes 960 pieces of unexploded ordnance (UXO), 62 anti-tank mines, six anti-personnel mines, and five improvised explosive device (IEDs). During the same period, clearance teams made 336,631 square metres of land safe for farming, grazing, access routes, and residential use.
Since the start of operations in the Midi district of Hajjah Governorate in September, Project Masam demining teams have also removed 5,885 landmines, UXO, and IEDs, reaffirming the project’s continued humanitarian efforts to secure affected communities.
Since its launch in mid-2018, Project Masam has cleared 527,493 explosive devices and over 74.5 million square metres of land across Yemen’s liberated regions, significantly reducing long-term risks for families, humanitarian actors, and returning communities.
Through close coordination with local authorities, YEMAC, and conflict-affected populations, Project Masam remains committed to restoring safe conditions and supporting Yemen’s wider recovery.
