Military members seek cover as an improvised explosive device, detonates unexpectedly during location and inspection June 28, 2006. Explosive ordnance disposal technicians were called to the scene when an Army infantry unit discovered a wire protruding from a mound in the middle of a road southwest of Baghdad, Iraq. The IED detonated while explosive ordnance disposal technicians were inspecting the mound with their Talon robot, destroying the robot and making the road impassable. The robots are remote controlled and are the hands and eyes of EOD technicians, keeping individuals a safe distance away from a blast. There were no injuries or deaths due to the blast.
