Tajikistan
Tajikistan is contaminated with anti-personnel mines and cluster munition remnants.
Key Developments
Tajikistan continued clearing cluster munition remnants (CMR) during battle area clearance (BAC) and mine clearance in 2025, with output increasing significantly compared to 2024. As was the case in the four years previously, no cluster munition-contaminated areas were released through survey in Tajikistan during the year. However, for the first time since 2020, no previously unrecorded areas of contamination were identified. Tajikistan did not complete all necessary survey for a complete baseline of CMR contamination by the end of 2025 as planned, and has set a new deadline of 2027 to do so.
Recommendations for Action
-
Tajikistan should accede to the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM) as a matter of priority.
-
Tajikistan should comply with its obligations under international human rights law to clear CMR on territory under its jurisdiction or control as soon as possible.
-
The Tajikistan National Mine Action Center (TNMAC) should prioritise survey to confirm the extent of CMR by the end of 2027 as planned, and ensure timely release of the contaminated areas.
