Improvised Explosive Devices
Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) are homemade bombs designed to cause harm or destruction. They can be made from various materials, including explosives, shrapnel, and triggering mechanisms. IEDs are often used in conflicts and can be hidden in everyday objects, making them difficult to detect.
These devices can be triggered in different ways, such as remotely or by pressure. IEDs have been notably used in military operations and terrorist attacks, posing significant risks to both military personnel and civilians. Their unpredictable nature makes them a serious concern for security forces worldwide.
