ISIS Is Using Tunnel Bombs
(Defense One) Marcus Weisgerber - Several dozen tunnel bombs have been detonated in Syria, while ISIS used them to take the Iraqi city of Ramadi, according to Pentagon officials. The concept is simple: dig a tunnel long enough to reach under your target, emplace explosives, and hit the detonator. Most such bombs have been in Syria, but U.S. officials say ISIS is building "a network of bunkers, trenches and tunnels" in Iraq.
