What is a primary version of the roadside IED attack?

A primary version of a roadside IED (Improvised Explosive Device) attack involves placing an explosive device along a road or path where it can be detonated remotely or triggered by the approach of a target, such as military vehicles or convoys. This method is commonly used in asymmetric warfare, where insurgents aim to inflict damage on more conventionally armed forces. The IED can be disguised as debris or hidden beneath the ground to evade detection, making it a particularly insidious threat. Such attacks seek to create fear, disrupt operations, and challenge the effectiveness of security measures.
