Landmines in Angola

Landmines have rendered large areas of arable land and pasture, many roads, bridges, river banks, villages, and some important economic installations unfit for the people of Angola. This report shows that attempts to restrict their use in Angola have failed and that anti-personnel landmines present a serious and chronic threat to civilians, far in excess of any short-term military advantage that may be gained.
