Molotov cocktails
A Molotov cocktail is a simple incendiary device typically made by filling a glass bottle with flammable liquid, such as gasoline or alcohol, and sealing it with a rag or cloth wick. When thrown, the bottle breaks upon impact, spreading the flammable liquid and igniting, creating a fireball. Often used as a makeshift weapon in protests or conflicts due to its ease of construction and effectiveness at starting fires. Because of their destructive nature and the danger involved, they are considered illegal and are associated with violent or unlawful activities.
