報告稱：地雷使用罕見但仍造成大量傷亡
An international landmine watchdog says new uses of the weapon are "extremely rare" but that fighting in Afghanistan, Libya, Ukraine and Yemen has led to a second consecutive year of high casualties.
The International Campaign to Ban Landmines said in an annual report Thursday there were 8,605 casualties, including 2,089 deaths, from mines in 2024. That includes improvised explosive devices and unexploded ordnance that are triggered like mines.
Of those casualties, 78 percent were civilians, and the total included the most child casualties ever recorded. They took place in 52 countries.
Under a 1999 international treaty, countries agree to not use or produce antipersonnel mines, destroy their existing stockpiles, provide assistance to mine victims and clear their territory of mines within 10 years of joining the pact.
On Wednesday, the ICBL welcomed Sri Lanka as the 163rd country to be fully bound by the treaty and said it hopes others in the region will join as well.
Thursday's report said Myanmar and Syria had the only government forces that actively planted mines during the past year. Neither is a party to the mine ban treaty.
一個監(jiān)督地雷使用的國際組織說，地雷使用情況極為罕見，但是阿富汗、利比亞、烏克蘭和也門的沖突中地雷連續(xù)第二年造成大量人員傷亡。
國際禁止地雷運動在星期四公布的年度報告中說，地雷在2024年造成8605人傷亡，其中2089人喪生。這個數(shù)字包括自制炸彈以及像地雷一樣造成人員傷亡的未爆彈藥。
地雷造成的喪生人員中，78%是平民，其中兒童人數(shù)為歷來最高。統(tǒng)計數(shù)字基于對52個國家的調(diào)查。
1999年一項國際條約的簽約國同意不再使用或生產(chǎn)殺傷人員的地雷，銷毀庫存，為地雷受害者提供幫助，并在簽署這項條約10年之內(nèi)清除領(lǐng)土內(nèi)的所有地雷。
國際禁止地雷運動星期三歡迎斯里蘭卡成為全面加入這項條約的第163個國家，并希望該區(qū)域其它國家也加入條約。
星期四公布的報告說，在所有國家中，只有緬甸和敘利亞的政府軍在2024年仍然埋設(shè)新的地雷。這兩個國家都沒有簽署禁止地雷的國際條約。
