Abstract
The unexpected turn of events in December 2024 during the Syrian Civil War – the fall of President Bashar al-Assad – may inspire long-unseen hopes among the population of this war-ravaged country. However, detecting and removing the explosives left behind by the war will take many years, provide work for masses of specialists, and consume vast financial resources. In this article, the author illustrates how difficult it is to estimate the amount of unexploded ordnance remaining in war zones, even when relying on otherwise high-quality information.
