What are the potential dangers of landmines?

### REPLY:
Landmines are typically hidden underground and designed to explode upon contact. They can cause devastating injuries, including loss of limbs, severe burns, and internal organ damage. The explosive materials used in landmines can vary, but they are often triggered by pressure or tripwires. The blast from a landmine can create a lethal shrapnel effect, causing multiple injuries or fatalities.
