    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


    HALO Trust to Brief Los Angeles Community on Landmine Problem in
    Karabakh

    Kurt Chesko, Program Officer for the HALO Trust, will speak about his
    recent visit to Nagorno Karabakh and discuss the impact that landmines
    and unexploded ordnance (UXO) have on the Armenian population. He
    will share photographs and give a mine clearance demonstration. All
    are welcome to attend.

    The HALO Trust is the world's largest humanitarian landmine clearance
    organization and operates a 200-person program in Karabakh, one of the
    most mine-affectied regions in the world. HALO's dedicated Karabakhi
    staff have destroyed 2,300 antipersonnel landmines, 1,000 antitank
    mine and over 26,000 items of UXO since 2000. HALO also provides mine
    risk education to the goverment authorities and residents of Karabakh.

    This briefing will occur at 10:30 AM on Saturday, 15th at The Glendale
    Public Library's Central Auditorium (222 East Harvard Street, Glendale,
    CA 91205). We hope to see you there.
