چکیده	The border areas of Kurdistan Province in western Iran continue to be plagued by the presence of landmines left over from the Iran-Iraq war, causing frequent accidents and inflicting severe physical, mental, and social damage on the residents. This paper aims to explore the lived experiences of landmine explosion victims in this region. The immediate aftermath of landmine explosions in these borderlands often results in the amputation of vital organs or tragic fatalities. Survivors of these incidents endure various forms of social and psychological trauma due to their physical disabilities. However, the provision of necessary services to these victims is characterized by a dualistic approach, where some receive support while others are deprived of assistance in order to facilitate activities such as smuggling, kolbariFootnote1, and illegal trafficking. This structural disparity exacerbates the challenges faced by victims, particularly those residing in border areas.
