Counter-IED Operations

Counter-IED operations are strategies used by military and security forces to detect, disable, and prevent the use of improvised explosive devices (IEDs). These efforts involve intelligence gathering, surveillance, specialized equipment, and tactics to identify potential threats before they can harm personnel or infrastructure. The goal is to reduce casualties and maintain safety by disrupting IED networks and ensuring routes and areas remain secure. Essentially, it’s a focused effort to outsmart and neutralize homemade bombs used by insurgents or adversaries.
