    The image captures an explosion or detonation occurring behind a large concrete barrier wall, with debris and dust being propelled upward into the overcast sky. The barrier appears to be a military-style HESCO or concrete T-wall fortification system commonly used in conflict zones. The surrounding terrain is arid and flat with sparse dry vegetation.

    Members of the Iraqi Counter Terrorism Services and the Coalition Forces detonate foreign explosives for training purposes in Baghdad, Iraq on March 28, 2018. The foreign explosives were confiscated from ISIS and used to provide realistic training for CTS members. The CTS have made great strides in becoming a professional, credible military with the defeat of ISIS. (U.S. Army photo taken by Sgt. Dennis Glass)

    A person in camouflage clothing and a black head covering is examining an open military-style wooden crate in the bed of a pickup truck. The crate contains what appear to be cylindrical objects and has Cyrillic script markings on its exterior. A second individual in Australian Defence Force (AUSCAM) pattern camouflage is visible on the right side of the frame.
    Two uniformed personnel in camouflage uniforms are working in the bed of a pickup truck, handling equipment and gear. A third individual in civilian clothing observes from the left side of the vehicle. The scene takes place in an outdoor courtyard area with a multi-story building visible in the background.
    The image shows a group of military personnel in a room conducting what appears to be a weapons training or demonstration session. Several individuals in mixed camouflage uniforms are handling what appears to be an RPG (rocket-propelled grenade) launcher and round. The setting appears to be an indoor classroom or training facility.
    The image shows four men in an outdoor setting, with one person in multicam military uniform facing three others, two of whom are wearing black uniforms with red berets and patches reading 'ISOF' (Iraqi Special Operations Forces). One of the ISOF personnel is holding a small yellow-tipped object, possibly a training round or munition component. The interaction appears to be an instructional or advisory exchange in a field environment.
    The image shows three 40mm x 46 grenade rounds marked 'HE/SD' with lot number '0001AGA14', stored in what appears to be a cardboard storage container. Each round features a yellow plastic ogive (nose cap) atop a black metal body with an olive drab stenciled label band. These are standard low-velocity 40mm grenade launcher rounds.
    Two military personnel in different camouflage uniforms are examining and organizing munitions laid out on sandy ground. One soldier wears Australian AUSCAM pattern uniform with a bush hat, while the other wears a desert digital camouflage uniform with a patch reading 'EOD' and an eagle insignia. The scene appears to be an EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) training or documentation exercise.
    Two Australian military personnel in camouflage uniforms are observing excavation work being carried out by a yellow construction excavator. The scene appears to be within a fortified compound, identifiable by the concrete blast walls or HESCO barriers visible in the background. The soldier on the right has a clearly visible Australian flag patch and 'AUSTRALIA' text on their uniform.
    The image shows multiple packages of Australian military-grade plastic explosive (PE4 equivalent) labeled 'Plastic Explosive 1% DMNB', designated as Charge Demolition 230g Cart PE No4-MC. The packages are olive/khaki colored with yellow text and are manufactured by Thales Australia, located in Baily St Mulwala, NSW. Several packages are bundled together with rubber bands on a white surface, set against a sandy/dirt background.
    Personnel wearing EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) patches are excavating a cache of munitions from a dirt trench. A green military ammunition box containing cylindrical projectiles/rounds is visible in the foreground. The team appears to be conducting a controlled recovery or disposal operation in an arid, sandy environment.
    Two military personnel are working together in or around an excavated trench or pit in sandy/earthen terrain. One individual wearing black military uniform with what appears to be Iraqi security force patches is positioned inside the trench, while another wearing Australian Army AUSCAM camouflage uniform and a tan cap is standing at the edge. They appear to be handling a rope or cord together, suggesting a training or operational activity.
    The image captures an explosion or detonation occurring behind a large concrete barrier wall, with debris and dust being propelled upward into the overcast sky. The barrier appears to be a military-style HESCO or concrete T-wall fortification system commonly used in conflict zones. The surrounding terrain is arid and flat with sparse dry vegetation.
