UK to provide £7M for HALO Trust to remove landmines in Ukraine and Afghanistan, aiding millions.

The UK government will provide over £7 million to the HALO Trust to continue its landmine removal efforts in Ukraine and Afghanistan. This funding aims to clear explosives and support the safe return of refugees while restoring land for agriculture. The HALO Trust, based in Scotland, has cleared nearly 700 million square meters of mines since 2014, with the new funds expected to save around two million lives and improve access to essential services for over ten million people.
