Nagorno-Karabakh
Support for Mine Action
In 2012, the Armenia office of the United States Aid for International Development (USAID) provided US$940,000 to HALO Trust for mine clearance in Nagorno-Karabakh.[1]
Despite HALO’s report that there were 143 confirmed mined areas covering 7km2 and 241 cluster strike locations covering 88km2 remaining to be cleared as of 31 December 2012, funding has declined 65% since 2008 and 38% from 2011.[2]
