The Azeri army has entered Agdam, a district that has been under Armenian control for almost thirty years. It is one of three areas Armenia has to hand back as part of a peace deal to end six weeks of fighting over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh. The other two districts are to be returned by December 1. While Azeris celebrate, Armenians are grieving the loss of land they have long claimed as their own.

They pose a serious danger to civilians – and to the crews tasked with clearing the sites.
