As noted in the summary, with the arrival of spring and an increase in the number of people engaged in agricultural activities, the risk of civilian mine incidents will increase

Over 750 mine related casualties among civilians have been reported since the start of the invasion - one in eight has involved a child.

"It will likely take at least a decade to clear Ukraine of mines," the British Defense Ministry noted.
