I would say that it is a miss quotation Hugh.
It should say "no children under 17 being killed or injured in Project RENEW's areas"

Always the way with journalist............ sorry to any journalist out there :)

All,

There is a factual error in this article, re: "[d]uring there past four years, there have been no children under 17 being killed or injured."

Child Casualties in Quang Tri



Sex

Device Type

2012

Male

Unknown Device

2



Undefined Mine

1





3


Sounds good, but it just ain't so...if anyone wants casualty data fact checking for such press releases I am happy to oblige.
