Keek gisteren wat op Nat Geo over Laos.


Laos is considered the world's most heavily bombed nation. During the period of the Vietnam War, over half a million American bombing missions dropped more than 2 million tons[50] of ordnance on Laos, most of it anti-personnel cluster bombs.[51] Each cluster bomb shell contained hundreds of individual bomblets, "bombies", about the size of a tennis ball. An estimated 30% of these munitions did not detonate. Ten of the 18 Laotian provinces have been described as "severely contaminated" with artillery and mortar shells, mines, rockets, grenades, and other devices from various countries of origin. These munitions pose a continuing obstacle to agriculture and a special threat to children, who are attracted by the toylike devices.[citation needed]

Some 288 million cluster munitions and about 75 million unexploded bombs were left across Laos after the war ended. From 1996–2009, more than 1 million items of UXO were destroyed, freeing up 23,000 hectares of land. Between 1999 and 2008, there were 2,184 casualties (including 834 deaths) from UXO incidents.[52][53]

In het verleden had je ook Amerikanen die overliepen naar Vietnam en DDR. Of Russen die in Afghanistan bleven. Allemaal vreemde vogels
 
Benieuwd naar de echte pandemie cijfers aldaar.
