Shiny and deadly, unexploded munitions a threat to Gaza children

Nicholas Orr, a former UK military deminer, told AFP after a mission to the war-battered Palestinian territory that "we're losing two people a day to UXO (unexploded ordnance) at the moment." According to Orr, most of the casualties are children out of school desperate for something to do, searching through the rubble of bombed-out buildings sometimes for lack of better playthings. "They're bored, they're running around, they find something curious, they play with it, and that's the end," he said.
