North Africa: Land Mines
Monday 30th November 2020

Asked by: Lord Kennedy of Southwark (Labour - Life peer)

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of the number of landmines laid in North Africa during World War 2 that remain a danger to people in that region.

Answered by Baroness Goldie - Shadow Minister (Defence)

The UK currently has no programmes specifically targeting World War II ordnance in North Africa although sometimes World War II mines are encountered by HMG-funded mine action projects in that region, and the UK has provided assistance to the Egyptian authorities. We have made no estimates on the number of landmines laid in North Africa during World War II that remain a danger to people in that region.
