Since the beginning of March, 28 civilians have been killed or injured by cluster bombs and remnants of explosive ordnance, the center said.
Every day, the Executive Centre registers victims of cluster bombs, and the lack of marking supplies for areas contaminated by cluster bombs and remnants of war makes their work all the more difficult.
