rafidainscope - A specialized human rights center warned of the danger of continuing environmental ramifications of armed conflicts and wars and the remnants and toxic materials they leave behind that threaten the lives of civilians and hinder the investment of
agricultural and residential land for long decades. On the occasion of the International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in Armed Conflicts, the center pointed to the presence of vast areas contaminated with war remnants, calling for enhanced
national and international efforts to clear mines, protect natural resources, and secure a safe and sustainable environment for future generations.
