Between June 1 and June 7, a total of 1,545.7 hectares of land were cleared of mines and unexploded ordnance in Azerbaijan's liberated territories. During these operations, 101 anti-tank mines, 48 anti-personnel mines, and 412 items of unexploded ordnance were discovered and neutralized.
According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, this data was released in the weekly report by the Azerbaijan National Agency for Mine Action (ANAMA) regarding humanitarian demining operations.
Demining efforts are being conducted by ANAMA, the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the State Border Service, and four private companies. Operations are currently underway in the Tartar, Aghdara, Kalbajar, Aghdam, Khojaly, Khankendi, Shusha, Khojavand, Lachin, Fuzuli, Jabrayil, Qubadli, and Zangilan districts, as well as in the liberated villages of Baghanis Ayrim, Ashaghi Askipara, Kheyrimli, and Gizilhajili in the Gazakh district.
The presence of landmines remains one of the most significant obstacles to the reconstruction and safe return of internally displaced persons to the liberated regions of Azerbaijan. The government has prioritized large-scale demining activities to ensure the safety of infrastructure projects and residential settlements in the post-conflict period.
