A petrol bomb, also known as a Molotov cocktail, is a crude incendiary device made of a glass bottle filled with petrol or gasoline and a cloth wick soaked in a flammable liquid such as diesel or alcohol. It is typically used as a weapon to ignite fires by throwing the bottle and breaking it upon impact, causing the liquid to spread and ignite. Petrol bombs are often used in riots or protests as a means of arson or as a form of protest.
