Near the "Blue Line" on the border between Lebanon and Israel, there are tens of thousands of landmines and unexploded ordnance buried, which are considered a "death zone" by the locals. Recently, the officers and soldiers of the 24th batch of Chinese peacekeeping multifunctional engineering units sent to Lebanon launched their first mine clearance mission here. They rely on their strong professional skills, fearless courage, and high sense of responsibility to take risks and safeguard peace. The rusty barbed wire and warning signs are particularly prominent around the perimeter of the mine sweeping operation area. This is our first time taking over the 1246 minefield, and we need to strengthen the surrounding environment survey and vigilance... "On the minefield in the early morning, the officers and soldiers began their operations according to instructions. The peacekeeping officers and soldiers dressed in heavy protective clothing entered the battlefield in an orderly manner. They bent over, their mine detectors slowly sliding against the ground, their eyes locked on the land scanned by the frame. Soon after, sweat soaked through the camouflage suit, and beads of sweat from the forehead slid down the cheeks. They looked focused, all their attention focused on the mine detector, not allowing any signal to be missed. Report to team leader, signal source localization completed! ”The voice of homework operator Chen Rongguang shattered the silence of the minefield. The team leader Xu Gang next to him immediately took the mine detector and bent down to further confirm the location of the abnormal noise. After rechecking and confirming the signal source, Chen Rongguang immediately conducted local excavation. He held a special hand shovel and carefully inserted it into the soil to start working. It should be noted that any loose falling stones or intertwined plant roots during the excavation process may trigger the landmine fuse. Time passed by minute by second in the tense excavation. Finally, the outline of the landmine was faintly revealed. It's an anti infantry landmine, "Chen Rongguang said in a gentle and steady tone. He immediately followed the United Nations standard operating procedures, quickly designated the hazardous area, marked it, and prepared for the destruction work. 3, 2, 1, detonate! ”With a command, a dull explosion sounded in the minefield. After several hours of meticulous detection and excavation, the minesweepers discovered four anti personnel mines and successfully carried out excavation and destruction. The sunshine shone on their resolute faces, and behind the goggles, there was an unwavering focus and courage. For us, carrying out the task of clearing landmines along the Lebanese Israeli border is not only a test, but also a mission. ”Peacekeeping officer Rosen said, "Some landmines have been buried underground for decades, posing a huge threat to the lives and safety of local people. We must strictly demand ourselves with high standards, use solid professional skills and rigorous operational attitudes to clear hidden dangers, and help local people return home." The Chinese military has always been a steadfast force in maintaining world peace. Peacekeeping officers and soldiers are practicing the mission of "Blue Helmets" with practical actions, writing a chapter of peace on the land of foreign countries. In the coming year, the officers and soldiers of the team will continue to advance the mine clearance mission, further clear the landmines in the region, and fulfill the resolute oath of "faithfully fulfilling the mission and maintaining world peace".
