The bombs which exploded across Belgium apparently contained the TATP explosive, which is linked to Daesh, and is said to be the mark of an experienced bomb maker.
Perpetrators of the Brussels attacks may have used Acetone peroxide (TATP) as the explosive in their bombs, Belgian newspaper De Standaard reported.
TATP was the same explosive used by Daesh terrorists in Paris, along with other attacks perpetrated by the group. Traces of the material were found, linked to investigations of alleged Daesh leader in the region, Salah Abdeslam.
“It looks like that the terrorists have again used the TATP explosive, the same kind as in the attacks in Paris,” Belgian newspaper De Standaard reported.
The use of TATP bombs suggests that the bomb-maker is highly skilled, Peter Bergen, director of the National Securities Studies Program at the New America Foundation, was recently cited by the New York Times as saying.
