OUR OPERATIONS IN UKRAINE
🛠 WHAT IF YOU WERE A DEMINER?
Step into the boots of an FSD deminer. From arriving on a grassy field suspected of contamination to sweeping your detector and marking a signal, every move must be precise – one mistake could be fatal. Could you handle the pressure? Take our interactive quiz and find out.
Before the detectors start beeping
In Ukraine, FSD surveyors talk to residents, trace the legacy of conflict and map where explosives still hide — all before detectors are used. This first step guides clearance teams to priority areas, opening the way for children to play, farmers to return to their fields and families to rebuild their lives.
For a safer world
Fields once littered with remnants of war now provide food, children can play without fear, and communities are rebuilding—discover our work.
