Implanted IED's

In recent offensive against Al-Qaeda payees (Taliban) in Afghanistan, so called the "Mushtarak" operaiton, the city of Marjah is entirely cleared, however, the progress of clearance is slowed due to Taliban implanted countless IED's and Antipersonnel land mines, according to a report.

Now, what will happen when the villagers of Marjah who fled the town before the "Mushtarak" operation started, while unaware of the ground conditions.

I urge the US, Afghan and British forces to immediately start a comprehensive mine clearance program and stop letting civilians to the city of Marjah.
