Cluster bomblets are small explosive devices that are often dispersed from larger cluster bombs. These weapons are known for their devastating impact on both military and civilian targets, and have been a subject of international controversy for many years. There are several synonyms for the term "cluster bomblet," including submunition, grenade, bomb fragment, and explosive pellet. Each of these terms refers to a small, individual explosive device that is designed to be dispersed over a wide area. While cluster bomblets continue to be used by military forces around the world, many international bodies are pushing for their complete ban due to their indiscriminate and deadly nature.
