In a post on Twitter, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned that landmines and unexploded ordnance detonations inflict heavy losses on civilians in Yemen.

On April 4, the United Nations said that 1,400 civilians, including 689 children, had been killed or injured in Yemen as a result of landmines and explosive remnants of war since 2018.

It is worth noting that the Eye of Humanity Center for Rights and Development in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, announced that the number of civilian casualties as a result of the direct bombing of the Saudi-led coalition during the 7 years of the aggression on Yemen amounted to 46,262 casualties, including 17,734 martyrs, among whom are 4017 children, 2434 women, and 11,283 men, while the number of wounded reached 28,528, including 4,586 children, 2,911 women, and 10,032 men.
