Tell Trump to commit the U.S. to stop bombing civilians

by: Handicap International

Used on a massive scale in urban areas during recent armed conflicts, explosive weapons have killed and maimed thousands of civilians in countries including Syria, Iraq, Yemen, and Afghanistan.

The victims of the bomb attacks, civilians are forced to flee their home countries and head for refugee camps in neighboring countries, or the coast of Europe.

After a 30-year campaign against anti-personnel landmines and cluster munitions which led to the Ottawa Mine Ban Convention (1997) and the Oslo Convention on Cluster Munitions (2008), Handicap International is now taking action to stop the use of explosive weapons in populated areas.

Sign the petition to stop bombing civilians. Help us reach ONE MILLION SIGNATURES.

I call on all States worldwide to:

· Publicly commit to end the use of explosive weapons with wide area effects in populated areas;

· Fully implement the treaties banning landmines and cluster munitions without delay and encourage non-signatory states to sign them;

· Contribute to assisting the victims, clearing weapons in affected zones, and preventing further injuries and deaths.
