Mine explosions occur mostly in these areas

Most mine incidents occur outside the former demarcation line.

Axar.az reports that Vugar Suleymanov, Chairman of the Board of the Azerbaijan Minesweeping Agency (ANAMA), said this.

"The fact that 70 percent of mine explosions occur outside the former demarcation line shows that the mines were placed illogically and unprofessionally. That's why the workers are extremely careful about the clearance process.

To date, more than 148,000 hectares of land have been cleared of mines. More than 124,000 mines and unexploded military ammunition were neutralized," he said.
