The US State Department is suspending global programs to clear unexploded ordnance for at least three months. The report states that the suspension of operations is “immediate” and will last at least three months. This step is explained by the executive order of US President Donald Trump, which provides for a reassessment of US foreign aid to focus on national interest priorities.

However, the source noted that the presence of unexploded ordnance poses a serious threat to the lives of both local residents and the US military.
