Anti-mine activity
According to the statement of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in Ukraine, our state has become the most mined country in the world due to a full-scale Russian invasion. Munitions and remnants of war pose a serious threat to the civilian population.
According to the Law of Ukraine on mine action in Ukraine Humanitarian demining is a set of measures taken by mine action operators to eliminate the dangers associated with explosive substances, including non-technical and technical surveys of territories, mapping, detection, disposal and/or destruction of explosives, marking, preparation of post-demining documentation, provision of information to the population about anti-mine measures and transfer of cleared territories to urban communities. Demining activities are carried out in the interests of national security in order to reduce the social, economic and environmental impact of explosives on people's lives and activities. Explosive remnants of war include unexploded ordnance and abandoned explosive ordnance associated with hostilities.
