Nigsti Gidey was five months pregnant when her husband was killed by an explosion earlier this year in Newi district, near Adwa.

Efforts have been made to collect unexploded weapons - like in Gorero, a small village off the side of the main road to Adwa, where officials have combed farms and fields.
