‘Landmines girls’ clear unexploded bombs left from the Vietnam War
An all-woman bomb disposal team scans and detonates unexploded ordnance from the Vietnam War, such as land mines, grenades and cluster bombs, hidden underneath the soil in north-central Vietnam. The old bombs, left behind by the US military in the 1970s, have claimed over 8500 lives in Quang Tri province. Medic and safety officer Nguyen Thi Ha Lan works for the project, Restoring the Environment and Neutralising the Effect of War, that aims to restore more than 60,000 hectares of agricultural land with explosives beneath.
