Between 1965 and 1973, 260 million cluster submunitions were sprayed over Laos. This bombing campaign roughly equals a planeload of bombs being dropped every 8 minutes, 24-hours a day, for 9 years. Examine the types of munitions used and see how they scar the landscape.
Laos' scarred landscape is saturated with moon-like craters. Aerial views as shown here are extremely rare.
UXOs are often detected in highly populated areas and local residents must be evacuated.
