An explosion rocked the Olympics stadium in Rio de Janeiro’s Maracanã Stadium yesterday after Brazilian police discovered a suspicious tool box and sent in a bomb defusal bot.
Police discovered a suspicious package in the Maracanã Stadium where rehearsals are going on for Friday’s opening games ceremony.
The suspected bomb device turned out to be a tool box, which required a robot to be deployed to safely examine it. Upon the point of contact with the tool box an explosion erupted with a loud bang according to 7 news.
“There was definitely an explosion after the robot went in. We are trying to confirm whether the explosion was the robot destroying the package or the package went off before the robot got to it,” said a Channel 7 spokesman.
Analyzing the situation thoroughly, Channel 7’s spokesmen would be wrong in considering the robot destroying the package. if there was an explosive in the toolbox, why blow it up on purpose? Would it not make more sense to use the robot in an attempt to disarm the bomb mechanically, and risk the bomb exploding, than exploding another bomb to explode the first bomb? The fact that the arenas to be used in the Rio Olympics have been chronically behind in their construction deadlines points to the realization that a malicious terrorist could have taken the opportunity to plant a bomb-filled toolbox which would blend in, being inconspicuous up until the end of the pressured construction period. A tool box wouldn’t be anything alarming, and if it is away from the active work zones, placed in a clever spot, it would draw no attention or handling from a crewman. The Daily Mail and other major news agencies are reporting that it is a very real possibility the construction won’t even be complete by the starting date of the Olympics. What if a person with this foresight placed a toolbox with a pressure sensor hoping it would not be touched until the Olympics finally began immediately after the end of construction, knowing that if it survives that time period the crowded stadium would be sure to incite someone to brush it or touch it, setting off the bomb in a crowded Olympic stadium. What if Rio doesn’t have its act together and doesn’t know how to handle it, while falsely assuring the international community that it is all going well.
There were no reports of any casualties after the explosion. This comes after several Olympians have been robbed at gun point in Rio, a city that is going through a rough financial patch that we reported on last month, when Rio declared a state of emergency and said they might have to cut public services.
Security has been stepped up by NOC the (National Olympics Commission) following these events and now Rio and international authorities are worried about the possibility of a terrorist attack during this years summer 2016 Olympic games.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has loaned hi-tech radiation monitors – including scanners and portable detectors – to local authorities to screen the ground for any radiation. The fear is that ISIS may use a dirty bomb after months of speculation that ISIS has the chemical compounds possible to such a bomb.
Earlier this year a Turkish MP said that ISIS received chemical weapon making material from Turkey and radioactive material went missing in Iraq.
There was also a laptop discovered in 2014 with how to plans to make biological weapons including how to weaponize the Bubonic Plague so ISIS is experimenting with different terror tactics now the fear is growing that they may use a dirty bomb and the target may be this years Olympic stadium Maracanã in Brazil’s capital Rio. We will keep you up to date on any new developments and any news out of Olympics regarding this growing terror threat.
