追随母亲的脚步 哈里王子探访安哥拉雷区

狼图腾

据英国《太阳报》报道，哈里王子追随目前戴安娜王妃的脚步，前往非洲雷区探访。今年28岁的哈里王子，担任光环信托组织（Halo Trust）的赞助人，近日亲自前往安哥拉视察这个慈善组织清理雷区的工作。穿着防弹衣和遮阳板的王子，不时同光环组织的负责人交谈。

    1997年，戴安娜王妃就曾跟随光环信托组织前往这个饱受战乱的国家。

    光环组织负责人盖伊·威洛比说：“哈里王子亲自到安哥拉来支持我们的排雷工作，我们非常开心。他对于这份事业的关注让我们更加清楚地认识自己肩上的责任和使命。战争或许早已结束，但这里的人们每天还是要面临被地雷炸伤、炸死的威胁，无法回归正常的生活。”

    肯辛顿宫称：“哈里王子看到光环组织取得的进展感到非常欣慰。他将尽自己的努力继续支持组织的工作。”

    光环信托组织成立于1988年，截至目前已经清除或销毁了超过140万枚地雷、1100枚其他类型的炸弹。

    在素有非洲最恐怖雷区之称的奎托夸纳瓦累，光环组织发现并转移了21,300颗地雷。

    CARING Prince Harry followed in mum Diana’s footprints as he toured an African minefield just like she did.

    Harry, 28 — patron of the Halo Trust’s 25th Anniversary Appeal — saw the charity’s work in clearing the devices in Angola.

    The Prince, wearing a flak jacket and visor, also chatted to bosses.

    Diana visited the war-scarred country with the same group in 1997.

    Halo chief Guy Willoughby said: “We’re delighted that Prince Harry has come out to Angola to support us in getting mines out of the ground for good.

    “His commitment plays an invaluable role in helping us to raise awareness of our work and mission.

    “Wars may be over but many people are still unable to resume normal lives, facing the threat of death or injury by landmines every day.”

    Chat ... Harry with charity bosses

    HALO Trust：

    Kensington Palace added: “Prince Harry was pleased to see how much progress the charity has made.

    “He is keen to keep supporting their efforts in any way he can.”

    Since being founded in 1988, Halo has destroyed more than 1.4 million landmines and 11 million various explosives.

    The chilling haul includes 21,300 mines found in and around Cuito Cuanavale, thought to be Africa’s most heavily mined town.
