War remnants and cluster bombs kill or injure 4 children in less than 48 hours

War remnants of unexploded ordnance, cluster bombs and mines are spread across the Syrian territory which witnessed battles between the different military powers that fought each others to impose their control and widen their influence, where mines have been used for ambushing enemies, also the bombardment of the regime forces using the internationally-prohibited cluster bombs, helped in increasing the number of the war’s victims, especially children as a result of the lack of awareness on the danger of such remnants.

In this context, a cluster bomb of remnants of a previous bombardment, exploded in Jasim city in Daraa countryside, while tampering with it, which resulted in the injury of 2 children with varying severity.

SOHR published on November 29, that a cluster bomb exploded after being put in a heating stove in a residential house in Kafr Nouran west of Aleppo, which injured a child seriously.

On November 28, SOHR documented the death of a child displaced from Hama countryside to the controlled areas of the pro-Turkey factions in the north of Aleppo, due to the explosion of a landmine of the war remnants in the countryside of Afrin city.

Thus, it rose to 215 people including 61 women and 58 children, the number of people who were killed by mines and IED explosions in several areas of the Syrian territory in Homs, Hama, and Deir Ezzor since the beginning of January 2019 until today.
