I want to read the post mortem. How did they planted small explosives into small devices, how it was triggered.

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 7 points 23 hours ago

Pretty simple really.

Plastic explosives has been around a long time. I could only guess what exists today.

GMRS radios (I'm assuming it was GMRS or something similar) are/can be mostly empty space.

Radios are open receivers, could easily send a signal that the hardware could trigger on, or have a timer to trigger on a certain date/time.

Just need access to the devices before shipping łor be able to intercept them).
