<p>Cluster bombs at a glance
<br />By The Associated Press -- 1 day ago </p>
<p>WHAT IS A CLUSTER BOMB?: Fired by artillery or dropped by aircraft, cluster bombs are canisters that open in flight and eject dozens or hundreds of "bomblets" across a wide area, typically the size of one or two football fields. Bomblets are small metallic spheres or cylinders that can be as small as a flashlight battery, with about the same force as a hand grenade. The weapon is designed to slow or halt an enemy army by destroying or disabling troops and vehicles over a wide area in a single attack.</p>
<p>___</p>
<p>DANGERS: An exploding bomblet sends jagged shrapnel through the air much like grenades and mines. It can kill or maim someone within 10 to 50 yards. Bomblets can be set to explode above ground or on the ground with a time delay. Usually they are set to detonate on impact, but 5 percent to 25 percent typically fail to explode, essentially creating minefields wherever they land. The unexploded "duds" are volatile and can detonate if disturbed.</p>

<p>Cluster bombs have killed and maimed thousands of civilians across the world. Now there's a global move to ban their use. </p>
<p>Delegates from more than 100 countries have gathered in Dublin to try to secure an anti-cluster munitions treaty.</p>
<p>However perhaps more notable are those NOT attending, including the United States, China and Russia ... the world's biggest producers of cluster bombs.</p>
<p>The US instead wants non-binding guidelines on the use of the weapon, as Anand Naidoo reports.</p>
