Lao authorities plan future UXO operations

Laos’ National Regulatory Authority (NRA) for the UXO/Mine Action sector in Laos has set a target to reduce the number of UXO casualties to less than 40 per year and provide assistance to at least 1,500 UXO victims in the period from 2016-2020.
The target was set out at the UXO sector working group meeting at Lao Plaza hotel in Vientiane on 16 November.
