Remote Control IEDs

Remote Control Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) are homemade bombs that can be detonated from a distance using a variety of triggers, such as radios, mobile phones, or remote controls. These devices are often used in conflict zones or terrorist attacks due to their surprise element and the ability to target individuals or groups without the bomber being present. The components typically include an explosive material, a triggering mechanism, and often shrapnel to maximize damage. The use of remote controls allows the attacker to remain safe and hidden while causing destruction. Their unpredictable nature makes them significant threats in security contexts.
