TOPSHOT - Syrian army soldiers use detectors to find and clear landmines in a field at a pistachio orchard in the village of Maan, north of Hama in west-central Syria on June 24, 2020. - Pistachio farmers in central Syria are hoping that reduced violence will help revive cultivation of what was once one of the country's top exports. Maan, famed for its pistachio production, was controlled for years by jihadists and their rebel allies but it fell to the government at the start of the year following a months-long offensive. Although battles have died down, farmers in Hama are now grappling with landmines left behind by rebels and jihadists. (Photo by LOUAI BESHARA / AFP) (Photo by LOUAI BESHARA/AFP via Getty Images)
