Landmines were used widely and indiscriminately in large quantities during the years of war that Yemen has been experiencing since the beginning of 2015, and all of it were attributed to Ansar Allah group (Houthis) for their unique use of landmines extensively in separate parts of the country, and they added new technology and locally made developments to them, which led to an increased danger to civilians and its threat to the lives of individuals, the environment, and animals more than to military vehicles.
In this blog, we highlight the story of “Muqitah Al-Jaidi” as one of the mine survivors, and she is in fact one of the hundreds of Yemeni victims affected by mines who require not only physical and psychological healing but also general reintegration into society through initiatives like job creation, economic empowerment initiatives, and vocational training programs.
