Sino-Vietnamese border the third large-scale demining was mainly rely on manual

June 26th, China, Vietnam border in Yunnan province recently started again the third large-scale demining operations. Three teams in the Yunnan Provincial military mine clearance mine clearance of the headquarters of 45 soldiers to martyrs Cheng Junhui sacrifice – banana Tong minefields, mine-clearing operations for the first time since entering the dry season, and on October 24 the morning banana Tang minefields in the search is completed. 4 months ago, the team of warrior Cheng Junhui sacrificed in carrying out mine-clearance tasks, then entered the rainy season near the Sino-Vietnamese border areas, mine clearance was suspended.

Army news reporters at the mine site to see, after the long rainy season, minefields number of landslides, mud-rock flows occurred, coupled with the rapid vegetation growth, added a lot harder to mine-clearing operations. To ensure that mine action commenced smoothly overall, Yunnan Provincial military commands, the command for mine clearance and demining troops jointly formulated the "torpedo opens up passages, along both sides of the channel to start manual search after" programme of action.

It is reported that 70 to 90 of the last century, laid over more than 1.3 million of the Sino-Vietnam border Yunnan province mines, more than 480,000 more than (the) various types of explosives, ranging form 161 confusing minefields, discontinuous distribution, an area of about 289 square kilometers.

After the normalization of Sino-Vietnamese relations, the Chinese Government has conducted two large-scale demining and demarcation mine. Among them, 1997-1999 in Yunnan and Guangxi frontier region's second largest mine is the world's most massive mine clearance operation in military history, total eradication of landmines, more than 500,000 more than 180,000 rounds (case), the Sino-Vietnamese border area area of 102.8 square kilometres of minefields have been cleared.

Mine clearance is the third recent mass clearance of phased restart. Xinhuanet reported on November 4, 2015, China-Vietnam border the third large-scale demining officially started in early November last year. Sites mainly in Wenshan, Honghe State, Yunnan province, plans completed before the end of 2017.

The southern weekend November 14, 2015, citing the Sino-Vietnam border mine a captain said, "Ray species, density, this is one of the difficulties facing Sino-Vietnam border mine clearance. "Due to the different types of mines caused principles are not the same, explosive means is different.

"Due to the mined area is relatively complex, most of the work need to be done manually. "Mine clearance command long Chen Anyou told the southern weekend reporter. For maximum degree to reduced mine job itself of risk, except take artificial found row, and rocket blasting mine, and mine play blasting mine, and arson destroyed mine, traditional mine way outside, Yunnan Provincial military mine forces also take mechanical mine and robot mine, technology means, and protection clothing, and small shovel, and small scissors, and small red flag, and mine detection needle, and metal double frequency mine detection device, still is common of mine equipment.

It is reported that the three teams in addition to mine clearance, the Yunnan Provincial military mine clearance command belongs to the other 3 teams respectively in malipo County, Hekoushi County's minefield jobs. They plan to complete 36.8 square kilometers of mined the search task, third larger scale of Sino-Vietnam border Yunnan province 67% of total demining tasks.

中越边境第三次大规模排雷 主要还得靠人工

　　据中国军网26日报道，中越边境云南段于近日再次启动第三次较大规模的排雷行动。云南省军区扫雷指挥部扫雷三队的45名官兵来到烈士程俊辉牺牲地——芭蕉塘雷场，展开进入旱季以来的首次排雷作业，并于10月24日上午将芭蕉塘雷场搜排完毕。4个多月前，该队战士程俊辉在执行扫雷任务时不幸牺牲，随后不久中越边境地区进入雨季，排雷工作暂停。

　　军报记者在排雷现场看到，经过漫长雨季，雷场多处出现塌方、泥石流，加之植被快速生长，给排雷作业增加了不小难度。为确保排雷行动全面顺利展开，云南省军区、扫雷指挥部与扫雷部队共同研究制订了“先使用爆破筒开辟通道、后沿通道向两侧展开人工搜排”的行动方案。

　　据悉，上世纪70年代至90年代，中越边境云南段埋设约130万余枚地雷、48万余枚（发）各类爆炸物，形成大小不等、断续分布的161个混乱雷场，面积约289平方公里。

　　中越两国关系正常化后，中国政府先后开展了两次大规模扫雷和一次勘界扫雷。其中，1997-1999年在云南和广西边境地区开展的第二次大扫雷是世界军事史上最大规模的扫雷行动，一共扫除地雷50多万枚、爆炸物18万多发（件），中越边境地区有102.8平方公里的雷场面积被清除。

　　近日开展的扫雷是第三次大规模扫雷的阶段性重启。据新华网2015年11月4日报道，中越边境第三次大规模扫雷于去年11月初正式启动。作业地点主要在云南省文山、红河两州展开，计划2017年年底前全部完成。

　　《南方周末》2015年11月14日援引中越边境排雷一位指挥员的介绍称，“雷的种类多，密度大，这是中越边境扫雷面临的困难之一。”由于不同种类的地雷引发原理不一样，排爆手段也不同。

　　“由于雷区地势相对复杂，大部分工作还需要人工完成。”扫雷指挥部指挥长陈安游对《南方周末》记者表示。为最大程度地降低排雷作业本身的风险，除采取人工搜排、火箭弹爆破扫雷、扫雷弹爆破排雷、纵火毁雷等传统排雷方式外，云南省军区扫雷部队还采取机械扫雷和机器人排雷等科技手段，而防护服、小铁锹、小剪刀、小红旗、探雷针、金属双频探雷器，依然是常见的扫雷装备。

　　据悉，目前除扫雷三队外，云南省军区扫雷指挥部所属的其他3支扫雷队分别在麻栗坡县、河口瑶族自治县等地的雷场作业。他们计划完成36.8平方公里雷区的搜排任务，占中越边境云南段第三次较大规模排雷总任务的67%。
