Afghanistan’s minefields: Bomb disposal teams call for more funding
Decades of war in Afghanistan have left large parts of the country littered with unexploded ordnance and landmines that have taken a devastating toll on civilians, mostly children playing and farmers working their fields.

Local bomb disposal teams cannot complete their work, leading to fears that more people will die or be badly injured.
