Incendiary rounds are specialized ammunition designed to ignite upon impact. They typically contain a flammable substance that can create fire or explosions when the round strikes a target. These rounds are often used in military applications to destroy equipment, vehicles, or structures. The use of incendiary rounds raises ethical and legal concerns, particularly regarding their impact on civilian areas. International laws, such as the Geneva Conventions, regulate the use of such weapons to minimize unnecessary suffering and protect non-combatants during conflicts.
