Which statement about secondary bombs is accurate?

• A. It is designed to hurt rescue personnel and create more damage in front of arriving media
• B. It only serves as a distraction
• C. It is a non-explosive device
• D. It is used to trigger other devices remotely

Answer: (A)

Secondary bombs are intended to maximize harm by striking those who come to help after the initial blast and by amplifying the incident in front of onlookers and the media. The key idea is to injure rescue personnel and escalate the overall damage, extending the attack’s impact beyond the first blast. That’s why this statement is the most accurate description. It’s not just about distraction, and while a secondary device could be used in a remote-triggering role in some scenarios, the primary aim described—harming responders and increasing the damage in view of the media—best captures the concept.
