KUITO, ANGOLA - 1997: A man amputee and a group of spectators watching a football game in Kuito, Angola in 1997. The town was the scene of the fiercest battles between the government forces and the rebels UNITA. Angola is one of the most heavily mined countries in the world. Despite the vast effort made to clear landmines, very few accurate figures for casualty rates are available. The town of Kuito in central Angola is surrounded by minefields left after the 22-month siege by the rebel UNITA forces. Many are in close proximity to residential areas. According to UNICEF, the UN's children's fund, Angola has 100,000 children orphaned by war, another 1 million who have lost one parent and about 200,000 children who have at some stage been forced into military combat.
