This institution has added that since 1989, when the Soviet forces left Afghanistan, 45 thousand people have been killed due to the explosion of mines and remnants of wartime explosives.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Aid in Afghanistan has warned that the lack of financial resources for the mine clearance program in 2024 has put the lives of about 3.4 million people at risk.
