Editing Improvised explosive device (section)

===Nepal===
IEDs were also widely used in the 10-years long civil war of the [[Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) (1994)|Maoists]] in [[Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal|Nepal]], ranging from those bought from illicit groups in India and China, to self-made devices. Typically used devices were [[pressure cooker bomb]]s, socket bombs, pipe bombs, bucket bombs, etc. The devices were used more for the act of terrorizing the urban population rather than for fatal causes, placed in front of governmental offices, street corners or road sides. Mainly, the home-made IEDs were responsible for destruction of majority of structures targeted by the Maoists and assisted greatly in spreading terror among the public.{{according to whom?|date=October 2024}}
