Children in Dasht Mir Sari village, near Zakho, a city few miles from the Iraqi-Turkish border in Dohuk Governorate. Landmine clearance charity MAG (MInes Advisory Group) cleared six minefields in and around the village. “We thank MAG. We feel free – we can go where we like and the children can play where they like, " said Sore Ismail, a grandmother in the village, whose husband lost his leg in a landmine accident while collecting wood in 1992. Landowner, Idris Ahmed Othman (born 1974): “The way we look at it is that MAG has saved all our lives. And not just in this village but in others in the area too. Now, we can let our sheep graze, we can go wherever we like. We can go for picnics with our families. None of this we would have been able to do if MAG hadn’t cleared our land. Words cannot express how thankful we are. We felt like prisoners, but now we are free.”
