#2 Note the particular use of gender in the text.
" four people are killed and maimed"
"a team of 13 female members"
"they started the task after seeing women, children and youth losing their body parts"
"defuse mines to save the lives of children and people"

Weird.

#4 That Alexandrian legacy, a bit timeworn and twisted...

In Afghanistan sang a thin hen,
"I'll never lay mines, only men,
Until they are ready
To hate Bouncing Betty."
Sang women and children, "Amen!"
