Syrians returning home after years of war face the danger of unexploded weapons

A warning that some of the images are disturbing. More than 1,000 people have been killed by mines and unexploded weapons in Syria, since the fall of Bashar al Assad more than 13 months ago. Many others have been maimed for life. More Syrians are returning home, but they risk walking straight into the minefields left by Assad’s forces. Clearing up all the explosives could take decades and cost tens of millions of dollars. Al Jazeera’s Bernard Smith reports from Deir Az Zor, one of the worst affected areas in Syria.
