Did you know that every day, in 70 countries, people are mutilated and killed by landmines ?
Every 30 minutes, or 20,000 times each year, someone is killed or injured by a mine. It is a drop in the bucket compared to traffic accidents. Really ?
No, not really, because tens of millions are indirect victims of landmines. The end of armed conflict is not the end of misery. It is compounded by the disruption of agriculture, famine, migration and more. Without the complete removal of mines a resumption of economic and social activity is seriously limited.

After seven years of arduous work Digger DTR is ready to begin its struggle against anti-personnel mines.
