Sadly, in Yemen, Mossad Naji\u2019s story is far too common<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naji is a grandfather who lives in the Shakhb village in the Al Dala\u2019a Governorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the beginning of Yemen\u2019s full-blown armed conflict<\/a> in December 2013, the southern province of Al Dala\u2019a (also known as al-Dhale) has been a battleground between various separatist factions, Houthi militias and pro-government forces. The strategic province is the border between northern and southern Yemen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The family man was injured during heavy fighting in his area when Houthi militias heavily bombed residential villages including Naji\u2019s village of Shakhb, northwest of Qataba, causing injuries to other civilians and farmers in his area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was shot in the stomach and now the shrapnel is still there,\u201d Naji said, adding that his entire family was displaced by the conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the frontline moved and he was able to return home, Naji found that the area had been heavily mined by Houthi militias<\/a> after they had retreated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I entered my home, [a landmine exploded] and my leg was amputated because of this mine,\u201d Naji told Project Masam from his village, as he pointed to his amputated right leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis entire area was mined.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As he recovered and learned how to walk again with the help of a prosthetic leg, his family and a stick, Project Masam was called in to carry out emergency clearance of the contaminated area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe thank the Masam teams, who helped and cleared mines from this area. There are no threats left: they have left the area mine-free,\u201d Naji said as he looked towards his grandchildren playing nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the help of Masam\u2019s clearance teams, Naji and his family can walk \u2013 and live \u2013 in their village again without fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
