The worst fighting in decades has erupted in Nagorno Karabakh. Families have been forced to flee to shelters as explosives, including cluster bombs, have hit civilian areas.

We are working with the national rescue service to keep people safe and have already destroyed over 150 items of unexploded ordnance.

HALO is on the ground teaching people to avoid dangerous weapons and mapping and isolating explosive debris scattered in the streets and fields.

We are distributing aid to civilians forced from their homes and working to mitigate the risk of Covid spreading.

HALO is the only international organisation working to protect the people of Karabakh from explosives. Please support our work.

Al Jazeera's Rory Challands, reporting from Stepanakert, examines the dangers faced by families in Nagorno Karabakh and reports on HALO's work to destroy the lethal explosives being found in civilian areas.
