MIne Clearing Mission. Nagorno Karabakh

Halo Trust employees conduct a mine clearing mission in the outskirts of Chartar Village. Nagorno Karabakh has one of the world’s highest per capita rates of accidents caused by mines, and explosive remnants of war (ERW). Halo Trust is an international NGO specialized in the cleanup of minefields and unexploded ordinances. The organization estimates that about 80% of the minefields located in the territory controlled by the Nagorno Karabakh Republic have been cleared. However, they face difficulties financing their activities in the territory due to territorial restrictions placed on a large part of their donor’s funds. © Daniel Barreto Mezzano
