👉 The "dump weapon" refers to a type of improvised explosive device (IED) that involves the use of a non-explosive object, such as a heavy metal can, a steel pipe, or even a large piece of concrete, filled with a chemical or explosive substance. When triggered, the object is typically dropped or thrown onto a target, causing a rapid release of the explosive material upon impact. This method is favored for its simplicity, ease of concealment, and ability to cause significant damage with minimal preparation, making it a common choice among non-state actors and terrorists.
