Yemen has been through many devastating wars and conflicts that resulted in the killing of many people and the destruction of crops, but Yemenis revolted and tried to change their reality, and create a civilian state that fulfills their aspirations.
But just days after the beginning of the realization of their dreams, the situation became the worst nightmare that no one dared to predict. A crisis that even the most pessimist person couldn’t imagine erupted and led to a coup made by the Houthi militias’ leaders which turned the situation into a very painful tragedy.
Since then, Yemen saw many crises, divisions, traumas and conspiracies due to the nature of this coup militias that want to destroy Yemen by any means and commit a genocide against its people.
The wickedness of these criminal militias drove them to using the landmines in an attempt to force the people to submit to their will and power.
The Houthi militias planted landmines in a massive way in all the regions where they set their feet. They concentrated them in residential areas, schools, roads and farms.. And the western coast of Yemen on the Red Sea is the most affected area by this epidemic, in addition to the provinces of Taiz, Abyan, Al Jawf, Marib, Shabwah, Hijjah and Ad Dali’. The Houthis planted landmines at random in all these regions.
This gargantuan number of landmines shows the bitterness and grudge that these militias carry in their hearts towards Yemen and its people. This is why they work hard to harm everything in Yemen, sparing no human or land, to satisfy their ally and implement its vicious agenda.
No reasonable person can expect mercy from these militias because they sold Yemen and conspired against their own country just for the sake of their interests.
Amid the danger of landmines that extends over hundreds of kilometers in Yemen, news about killings became a norm, but good daily news also come about project Masam’s efforts to protect civilians and help Yemen to get rid of this ordeal.
Masam’s clearing teams were able to clear during the 4th week of August to 1273 landmines, unexploded ordnance and explosive devices, which brings the total of what was cleared during this month to 4591. As for the total of what was cleared since the launch of the project until the 28th of August, it reached 182228.
Team 4 Masam is working nowadays on clearing the region of Aljazia’ in Bayhan directorate, after the Houthis planted huge numbers of anti-personnel landmines there.
Masam’s employees were able until now to clear 1600 square meters of the region’s total size, and they are working to fully secure it, along with the mountain of Dikam.
Project Masam has been always very effective in Yemen, and with its workers and management’s efforts, it was able to clear a number of fields and mined areas. Thanks to Masam, hope returned to Yemenis after a long journey of desperation.
