Iraq Landmine Impact Survey – Final Report 2007

United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq, Iraq Landmine Impact Survey – Final Report 2007 (136 pages, PDF)

  • “The contaminated sites, as estimated by local key informants, comprise 1,730 square kilometers of land. They affect the livelihoods and safety of more than 1.6 million persons. Please note that the contaminated area described above represents only that identified in the 13 of Iraq’s 18 governorates visited to date by the survey project. Additionally, the Landmine Impact Survey process focuses upon contamination that impacts populated places (communities). Some formerly populated areas within the surveyed governorates were not visited by iMMAP survey teams because the populations of those areas remain displaced due to the contamination hazard, and thus detailed survey activity was not possible in these places.”
