HALO CAMBODIA

Many rural roads in the northern Districts of Cambodia remain seeded with anti-tank mines; the yellow stick indicates where HALO found and destroyed two Russian TM46 anti-tank mines, which were stacked atop one another. Anti-tank mines account for just 1% of all mines found in Cambodia but 23% of all casualties - they a major impediment to development and block market access for impoverished rural communities.
