Iran

Available data on contamination and land release of cluster munition-affected areas in Iran continue to be extremely limited. There is no publicly available evidence to suggest that survey or clearance of cluster munition-contaminated areas took place in 2024.

• Iran should accede to the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM) as a matter of priority.

• In the meantime, Iran should commit never to use cluster munitions and should comply with its obligationsunder international human rights law to clear cluster munition remnants (CMR) on territory under its jurisdiction or control as soon as possible.

• Iran should report publicly on the extent and location of CMR and prepare a plan for their clearance and destruction.
