Mine Awareness Day is an occasion that reminds the world of an issue that harmed mankind in many countries around the world; those who suffered from the evil of mines and tasted its bitterness, lived a life that was full of orphanage, displacement, unemployment and death because of the explosive death traps. Among the societies which faced the horrors of mines is the Yemeni society; it suffered and is still suffering at their evil hands that are strangling its neck, by forcing the Yemeni people to cut down their movements and depriving them of safety and security.<\/p>\n<p>On the occasion of The International Mine Awareness Day, the Managing Director of Masam project Mr Ousama Algosaibi addressed the international community by focusing on the danger of mines as a challenge for mankind. Mr Algosaibi said: \u201cOn this day, we remind the people and participate in raising the level of awareness about the dangers caused by mines plantation and the extent of their impact on individuals and societies.<\/p>\n<p>Algosaibi also emphasized on the value of international awareness for societies, as they gain an awareness about this mined enemy which killed so many, orphaned families, widowed women, wasted energies and resources, dried up the sources of living and made mankind pay a heavy and painful human price.<\/p>\n<p>In this context, Mr Algosaibi recommended all human efforts that were and are still made to defeat mines, praising in particular the sacrifices made by Masam\u2019s teams and especially the martyrs of this project. He said: \u201cOn this day, we remember the humanitarian work\u2019s martyrs who sacrificed their noble lives during their work in de-mining. We pray that God has mercy on them, and that God heals all the civilians who were injured because of this coward weapon\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Algosaibi talked at length about the value of awareness about the dangers of mines on this international day to emphasize on their dangers by saying: \u201cOn this day, we were used to have educational and awareness activities, to limit the exposure to the dangers of mines, but this day comes unfortunately as the entire world is facing an ordeal that has never been witnessed in our modern history; all of us are facing this (Corona) pandemic which doesn\u2019t differentiate between religions, races or nationalities. It doesn\u2019t differentiate between the young and the elderly, but the Corona pandemic shouldn\u2019t make us forget our international duty to educate about the dangers of mines\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Algosaibi ended his message by saying: \u201cI call upon all to follow your governments\u2019 instructions and to stay at home. Be responsible to protect yourselves, families, peoples and countries.. and in the end, may God protect His Majesty the Custodian of the two holy mosques, and His Highness the Crown Prince, and may God protect our beloved kingdom and its great people\u201d.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_widget_sidebar show_bg=&#8221;false&#8221; sidebar_id=&#8221;sidebar_1&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1523980243435{background-color: #bfbfbf !important;border-radius: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;slideInLeft&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524347545394{background-color: #a3a3a3 !important;border-radius: 15px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text] News [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image source=&#8221;featured_image&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;right&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1524156224953{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1586016902050{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #b5b5b5 !important;border-radius: 15px !important;}&#8221;]The International Mine Awareness Day is an occasion that reminds the world of an issue that harmed mankind in many&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16637,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16636","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-18","description-off"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16636","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16636"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16636\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16638,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16636\/revisions\/16638"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16636"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16636"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.projectmasam.com\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16636"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
