Thirty eight years after the end of the American war, Quang Tri is still one of the provinces in Vietnam most contaminated by unexploded ordnance (UXO), with over 80% of its land area containing wartime bombs and landmines. Many victims of UXO and landmine explosions still live in the province and are facing difficulties in their daily lives.
