Afghan Officials Said An Average Of 120 Afghans Are Killed

Afghan Officials Said An Average Of 120 Afghans Are Killed. In Afghanistan, an average of 120 people is killed every month due to the explosion.

Afghan officials said an average of 120 Afghans are killed or severely injured by explosives every month in a war-torn country, where they have to spend their entire lives as a disabled person.

Afghanistan’s Mine Action Coordination Directorate (DMAC) said in a statement on Sunday, “Unintended artillery and landmines kill an average of 120 people every month, including children, or become disabled.” In 2001, this figure was 40, which has now reached 120.

Xinhua News said that according to DMAC, about 900 Afghans were killed and landmines in 2020 and 1,700 others injured as a result of unexplained artillery in 2020, with non-combatants accounting for 30 percent of the total casualties.

The statement said that despite efforts to evacuate the areas, more than 1,600 sq km of land across the country is still littered with mines and unexplained artillery, while 37 sq km of land was cleared last year.

Explain that Taliban militants and other insurgent groups of the country are using indigenous improvised explosive devices (IEDs) to build roadside bombs and landmines to target security forces, but lethal weapons also harm civilians. Huh.
