Project Masam teams have removed four anti-vehicle mines from Al-Ja\u2019dah village in Midi District, northern Hajjah, after a local farmer reported suspicious objects near agricultural and grazing land.<\/p>\n
Midi is a strategically important district close to Yemen\u2019s north-western border and Red Sea approaches, where years of conflict and Houthi mine-laying<\/a> have left extensive contamination across farmland, grazing areas and civilian routes.<\/p>\n The mines were spotted by Hassan Adhabi while he was working on his land west of Al-Ja\u2019dah village. He alerted Project Masam, prompting teams to deploy to the area and secure the site.<\/p>\n Engineer Mujahid Al-Sha\u2019er said personnel first moved a nearby herder and his livestock away from the hazardous area before assessing and neutralising the four mines.<\/p>\n The site is used by farmers and herders and lies close to communities hosting both local residents and displaced families, increasing the potential civilian exposure to explosive hazards.<\/p>\n Al-Sha\u2019er urged residents to keep clear of suspected contaminated areas and to report suspicious objects rather than approach, move or inspect them, allowing specialised teams to assess and clear the threat safely.<\/p>\n
