💣 Landmines kill long after wars end — 84% of victims are civilians, 1 in 3 a child. Canada helped lead the ban. Now PM Carney must speak up to defend it. Don’t let buried war crimes come back. ✍️ Add your name: #BanLandmines #OttawaTreaty. secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/...

No exceptions. No reservations. No excuses. #BanLandmines
In the previous months we’ve heard every excuse to withdraw from these humanitarian disarmament treaties.

But there is no justification. Not for landmines. Not for cluster munitions.

It is unconscionable that the question of banning landmines should even be up for discussion.

Please consider signing this to ensure that we continue the crucial practice of landmine bans.

SO WE ARE DOING LAND MINES NOW?? Is Biden trying to commit as many human rights violations as possible before he departs?

164 countries have signed onto the international convention banning landmines, but not the United States or Russia. #Landmines indiscriminately kill civilians. #BanLandmines
Exclusive: President Joe Biden has authorized the provision of antipersonnel land mines to Ukraine, two U.S. officials said, a step that will bolster Kyiv’s defenses against advancing Russian troops but has drawn criticism from arms control groups.
Biden approves antipersonnel mines for Ukraine, undoing his own policy
The controversial White House move to send Kyiv land mines comes as Russia’s advances in eastern Ukraine threaten to overwhelm front-line defenses.

🚨 70–85% of #landmine victims are civilians. Banned for 25+ years, they are reappearing as states withdraw from the Ottawa Treaty. We call to defend this cornerstone of humanitarian law and strengthen support for demining and victims. #BanLandmines #ProtectCivilians #MineAwarenessDay

"Some argue countries need landmines as war spreads, but they keep killing long after conflicts end and stop communities from fully thriving in peacetime."

"The greatest costs are paid by future generations, especially children."

🚨 70 à 85 % des victimes de #mines sont des civils.
Interdites depuis plus de 25 ans, elles refont surface alors que des États quittent le Traité d'Ottawa. Nous appelons à défendre ce pilier du droit humanitaire et à renforcer le soutien au déminage et aux victimes.

The 1997 #OttawaTreaty to #BanLandmines needs champions -"As landmines continue to kill and injure people around the world, the overwhelming majority – between 70% and 85% per year – are civilians. Nearly 40% of those affected by landmines are children." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

"Every landmine planted is a child, a civilian, a woman, who is just waiting for their legs to be blown off, for his life to be taken. I am here to say we don't want any more victims. No excuses, no exceptions."
