Three Killed, Three Injured In Landmine Blast In Binga

Three people died and three others were injured when a Binga Rural District Council vehicle struck a landmine in the Sebungwe area along the Zambezi River. The tragic incident occurred on Wednesday around 5 PM, as reported by the Chronicle.

The vehicle had departed from Binga Centre with three council employees on board, heading to work in Sebungwe.

On their return journey, the driver opted for an alternative route due to impassable muddy conditions on the main road.

It was along this detour that the vehicle hit a landmine, resulting in the fatal incident.

The victims included passengers who had requested a lift to Binga. One person died instantly, while two others succumbed to their injuries en route to the hospital.

The landmine is suspected to have been planted during the war for independence in the 1970s.

During Zimbabwe’s war of independence, the Rhodesian military laid an estimated 3 million anti-personnel mines between 1974 and 1979, primarily along the country’s borders with Mozambique and Zambia to deter liberation fighters from entering the country.

Efforts to clear these mines are ongoing, with organizations such as the Zimbabwe Mine Action Centre (ZIMAC), HALO Trust, Mines Advisory Group, Norwegian People’s Aid, and APOPO working towards making the country mine-free by 2025.

because soldiers are just sitting in the barracks since independence....if they had been trained to demine these IEDs the borders would have become safe zones by now

Shame,may their souls rest in Eternal peace, eish yaaa terrible & horrible.Since independence these landmines have not yet been removed why?So meaning that there are still some which needs to be removed.Also does your friends do not have detectors for these landmines Mr ED, l mean Chinese.Sometimes they may help to locate where there are some which were not identified or located somewhere somehow

ZIPRA fighters would have laid that as the Rhodesian forces never laid any landmines on internal roads.

I agree with anonymous. Landmines were laid for vehicles. Zpra only operated on foot and it was them that laid the mines for the Rhodes ian forces vehicles to detonate. The blame lies with the so called liberators.
