👉 An overnight weapon refers to a type of explosive device designed to be activated or detonated during nighttime hours, often by means other than traditional triggers like matches or keys. These weapons can include devices that use chemical, electrical, or even magnetic activation methods, making them difficult to detect and intercept. They are typically concealed in vehicles, packages, or hidden locations and are used for various purposes, including sabotage, terrorism, or criminal activities. The anonymity and reduced risk of immediate detection during nighttime operations make overnight weapons a significant threat in security contexts, requiring specialized countermeasures and surveillance techniques.
