And landmines.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Landmines, unlike landlines, are still around.

The latest estimates show that in 2021, more than 5,500 people were killed or maimed by landmines, most of them were civilians, half of whom were children. More than two decades after the adoption of the Mine Ban Treaty, about sixty million people in nearly 70 countries and territories still live with the risk of landmines on a daily basis.
