Since #Russia’s full-scale invasion began, cluster munitions have caused over 1,200 civilian casualties in #Ukraine. Behind each number is a life forever changed, a family torn apart, a community living in fear.
👉 This is why the work to eradicate these indiscriminate weapons matters more than ever.

Mr. Volodymyr pictured in the yard of his home near the village of Zarazhne in Kharkiv Oblast. In February 2022 he was injured in a cluster munition strike on Kharkiv city and now has no feeling below his left thigh as a result of nerve damage. The strike, he says, was the first instance of cluster munitions in the war. When you are injured from cluster munitions he says, there is no end. He is a beneficiary of HI with cash assistance. © C.

Finland’s statement on universalization was a masterclass in double standards: explaining why they’re withdrawing from the treaty while urging others to stay committed.

#Angola still faces 67km² of mine contamination across 16 provinces. In 2023, Angola received $11.2M in mine action aid—52% from the #US.
Recent funding cuts to demining raise concerns about future support.

6,000 casualties a year is still too many!
For those contemplating withdrawing from the Mine Ban Treaty: your actions will only lead to increasing the number of casualties in the future, many of whom will be from your own population.
