Clearing improvised and conventional landmines, UXO and ERW from North Eastern Lebanon formally occupied by ISIS The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs is supporting an emergency intervention in the northeast areas of Lebanon which from 2014 to 2017 have been occupied by Jabhat Al-Nusra, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and other non-state armed groups. These areas are currently contaminated with a large number of improvised landmines, and other Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), as well as other Land Service Ammunition and Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) caused by the fighting between security forces and non-state actors. With the support of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, MAG will deploy clearance teams in the Ras Baalbek area to conduct clearance of Cluster munitions, UXO, conventional and improvised landmines. In parallel with clearance activities, the mine action authority?s ability to manage and support operations on IEDs will be strengthened through meetings aiming at revising the National Mine Action Standards (NMAS) to incorporate IEDs based on the latest IMAS revisions and updates. Clearance of prioritised land and handover to authorities for release.

Supporting the DRC to become mine-free and achieve compliance with Article 5 of the Ottawa Treaty in less than two years The Democratic Republic of Congo is contaminated with landmines and Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) as a result of the First and Second Congo Wars (1996-97 and 1998-2003 respectively), as well as subsequent localised conflicts between the DRC Government and various rebel groups. Although the eastern provinces of North and South Kivu, where conflict is still ongoing to the present day, were the most significantly affected by these conflicts, all eleven provinces of the country were contaminated. The former province of Equateur is the most contaminated province in DRC, and North Ubangi is the most contaminated district in Equateur, as shown by a National Landmine Contamination Survey (NLCS) conducted in 2013. In April 2014, the DRC was able to report that 130 SHAs affected by mines remained in eight provinces (Equateur, Kasaï Occidental, Kasaï Oriental, Maniema, North Kivu, Katanga, Province Orientale, and South Kivu) covering an estimated 1.8km2, more than half of which was located in Equateur and Katanga provinces. These estimations were made on the basis of the results of a nine-month-long National Landmines Contamination Survey (NLCS) launched in March 2013 by UNMAS to determine the full extent of mine and cluster munition contamination across the country. Once the survey was completed, DRC used the results as the basis for its second Article 5 deadline extension request, which was submitted in April 2014. In June 2014, states parties to the APMBC granted DRC a six-year extension to complete Anti-Personnel mine clearance on its territory by 1 January 2021. However, MAG and other mine action operators are confident that DRC can achieve Article 5 compliance in less than two years with adequate support. Completion of clearance in DRC will have a significant impact on the mine action sector as a whole and will serve as an example for other countries of how to achieve treaty compliance using quality Non-Technical Survey. Given the prospect of completion, MAG will work in partnership with GICHD to ensure that the national authorities have the capacity to implement strategies and policies associated with completion, as well as the technical capacity to deal with residual contamination.

South Africa - Line of Credit to Nedbank Limited Afrique du sud - Ligne de crédit à la "Nedbank Limited" The project will provide a foreign currency line of credit (LoC) up to USD 100 million to Nedbank Limited, Nedbank Group’s principal subsidiary. Nedbank has a strong pipeline of projects with high visibility for rapid disbursement of funds. These are important continental projects that will make a strong contribution to growth and development. Through the LoC, the Bank will be leveraging a strong middle-income country (MIC) financial institution that is capable of assessing and taking risks in lower-income countries (LICs) and fragile states. The proposed LoC will be used exclusively to finance USD-denominated project finance transactions in Africa but outside of South Africa with a particular focus on infrastructure and industrial projects. In order to meet Nedbank’s need for longer term funds, the LoC will feature a grace period of up to three-year and a 10-year amortization profile. Le projet vise à fournir à Nedbank Limited, principale filiale du Groupe Nedbank, une ligne de crédit (LC) allant jusqu’à 100 millions de dollars EU. Nedbank possède une bonne réserve de projets avec possibilité de décaissement rapide des fonds. Il s’agit d’importants projets continentaux qui vont apporter une solide contribution à la croissance et au développement. Grâce à la LC, la Banque pourra servir de levier à une solide institution financière pour les pays à revenu intermédiaire, qui soit capable d’évaluer et de prendre des risques dans les pays à faible revenu et dans les Etats fragiles. La LC proposée sera utilisée exclusivement pour financer les opérations de financement des projets libellées en dollars EU en Afrique, mais hors de l’Afrique du Sud, en mettant un accent particulier sur les projets infrastructurels et industriels. La LC ne sera pas utilisée pour des transactions en Afrique du Sud, qui sont financées en rands.
