Two separate blasts from unexploded ordnance left over from Cambodia’s decades of war killed one person and injured four others, police said on Monday (May 13). One incident took place on Sunday in Banteay Meanchey province’s Phnom Srok district when a 45-year-old man struck a DK75 rocket propelled grenade round with an axe. The ill-fated man discovered the unexploded ordnance when he ploughed his rice field, the police said. In another incident on Saturday, a war-era grenade injured four persons in central Kampong Chhnang province’s Baribour district as it exploded while they played with it.
