Secondary explosions, a dangerous phenomenon where one blast sets off another due to the presence of hidden explosive materials, have become a serious threat in conflict zones like southern Lebanon.

An example of this occurred at a launch site where explosive materials were concealed inside civilian homes. When the site was struck, the initial explosion triggered a series of secondary blasts, resulting in widespread destruction.

Hezbollah’s use of this illegal tactic is a direct threat to the lives and safety of civilians living nearby, who face the terrifying reality of living amidst potential explosions.

Shocking scenes in Lebanon as the IDF bombs the house of a local fireworks enthusiast. Just look at his collection of Catherine wheels, Roman candles and bottle rockets going off.

Well, either that or Hezbollah are hiding arms caches in civilian houses. Hard to say. pic.twitter.com/sl0obPvwBE
