The HALO Trust has warned that renewed combat in Yemen, including intensified Houthi attacks around Taiz, could trigger a dramatic surge in landmine and unexploded ordnance casualties among communities already reeling from displacement and hunger.
Yemen Among World's Worst Mine-Affected Nations
Yemen ranks among the most severely affected countries globally by explosive remnants of war, recording the third-highest number of landmine casualties over the past decade. In 2024 alone, mines and unexploded ordnance caused 260 civilian casualties, including 44 child deaths, as missiles and rockets regularly strike densely populated urban areas.
Children are especially vulnerable, often encountering lethal hazards while farming, herding livestock, or mistaking explosives for toys. The city of Taiz, at the heart of Yemen's civil war since 2015, has been divided by shifting frontlines, severing the main highway to Aden and disrupting access to essential services like food and water.
HALO Trust Pauses Demining Amid Escalating Conflict
HALO Yemen Country Director Mara van der Kamp stated that the organisation was already at breaking point before the war reignited, having operated for seven years despite enormous funding shortfalls. All demining operations in Aden, Taiz and Mocha are now paused, with staff and equipment relocated from Taiz and Mocha to Aden.
The HALO Trust is planning to deploy new teams in Lahj and Ad Dhale using urban clearance techniques developed across the Middle East. Since 2019, HALO Yemen has made more than two million square metres of land safe, destroyed over 114 tonnes of explosives, and trained more than 58,000 people in explosive-ordnance safety.
Humanitarian Crisis Deepens as Families Face New Threats
The UN's 2026 Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan estimates that 22.3 million people require humanitarian assistance, including 18.3 million facing acute food insecurity. More than 2.2 million children under five are acutely malnourished, including over 516,000 suffering from severe acute malnutrition, compounding the danger of explosive contamination.
Mass displacement can push families into areas they do not know are contaminated, increasing the risk of accidents and fatalities. Yemen's families are already facing hunger, displacement and a failing health system under enormous pressure, and should not also have to fear that the streets around their homes or children's schools may be hiding unexploded bombs.
