incendiary bombs

Incendiary bombs are weapons designed to start fires upon detonation. They typically contain flammable substances, such as thermite or special chemicals, that ignite quickly and spread flames over a wide area. These bombs are used during warfare to destroy buildings, infrastructure, or vital resources by setting fires that are difficult to extinguish. They differ from explosive bombs, as their primary purpose is to cause damage through intense heat and fire rather than shrapnel or blast effects. Incendiary bombs have been historically used in military campaigns to weaken enemy forces and infrastructure.
