First Gulf War
117,634 were used, mostly scattered by airplanes.
27,967 were antipersonnel mines.
89,667 were antivehicle mines.

The U.S. is spending millions of dollars in work to demine Iraq (which already had more than its fair share of landmines in place).

There remains, on average, a new casualty every day in Iraq because of landmines.

Since then in the cases of both Kosovo and Iraq, the U.S. have deployed landmines to the region but there's no recorded use of any in either conflict.
