Konya bomb disposal experts utilize domestic technology

Bomb disposal experts in Konya are utilizing domestically produced technology to manage high-risk explosive threats, including suspicious packages, booby-trapped bombs, and unexploded improvised explosive devices.

Police officer Abdullah Paçal, from the Konya Provincial Police Department's Bomb Disposal and Investigation Bureau, noted that specialists undergo rigorous training through the Criminal Department to handle technical analysis and neutralization. The experts rely heavily on local advancements, such as the ‘Ertuğrul’ bomb disposal robot and domestically manufactured jammer devices. These tools allow for reconnaissance, surveillance, and the transport of explosives, often reducing the need for officers to wear heavy bomb disposal suits by using integrated camera systems for remote inspection.
