Radwan Zaid Ibrahim was only a child when a landmine explosion shattered his leg.
Now in his teens, Radwan told Project Masam how the blast affected his life: he walks with difficulty and can no longer play or work.
Luckily, after Project Masam heard of the presence of landmines in Radwan’s area, demining teams entered and cleared the village, ensuring no other child would face the threat of mines and explosive devices. Clearance also allowed children to return to school and parents to go back to the farms and grazing lands.

Since the Saudi programme was implemented in mid-2018, Project Masam has located and destroyed 246,866 explosive devices.
