Survivors, sniffing dogs join anti-mine march at Cambodia’s Angkor Wat

Survivors and sniffing dogs joined hundreds of people at Cambodia’s Angkor Wat on Sunday for a march against landmines after the US decision to send anti-personnel mines to Ukraine.

Participants, including landmine victims and deminers, repeatedly chanted for “a mine-free world” during the four-kilometre (2.5-mile) walk around the famed temple complex in Siem Reap.

The march was held a day before an anti-landmine conference convenes in Cambodia, which is awash in unexploded ordnance as a legacy of civil war.
