Car Bomb Attack: Delhi Faces New Terror Threat

Imagine a bomb hidden inside a regular car.

This is called a car bomb, or VBIED.

Terrorists like these because it's easier to hide and can cause a lot of damage.

The car looks normal, like any other car on the street, making it hard for police to spot.

The car itself is part of the bomb, and when it explodes, pieces of the car fly out like dangerous bullets.

Recently, a car bomb exploded near the Red Fort in Delhi, sadly causing many deaths.

Police are trying to figure out how to find these hidden bombs before they explode.

They are looking for unusual cars, like ones parked for too long or with odd smells, and asking people to be watchful.

Even though police are familiar with car bombs, stopping them, especially in busy cities, is very tricky.
