At least three children have tragically lost their lives due to the detonation of unexploded ordnance in Herale town, located in the Galgadud region of Somalia.
The incident, which occurred on Thursday, highlights the persistent danger posed by remnants of conflict in the region, which continue to pose a significant threat to civilian lives, especially children.
Unexploded ordnance remains a critical issue in Somalia, where decades of conflict have left behind numerous hazardous explosive remnants. Efforts by humanitarian organizations to clear these dangers and educate the public on the risks associated with them are ongoing but challenging.
