A clip has been shared on social media where a Ukrainian soldier has created a very unusual form of bomb. Namely an acid flow bomb, it reports The evening paper.
In the film, the soldier jokes that the acid stream could work as a biological weapon.
Joakim Paasikivian expert on security policy and strategy, believes that it would be an excellent area of use for the fermented fish. Perhaps even the most reasonable.
– As a Stockholmer who comes from southern Sweden, I believe that this is the only reasonable area of use, which is exactly this. To blame them on the Russians, he says in the studio to Aftonbladet.

Positive effects
Although the video of the surströmming bomb is assumed to be a joke, Joakim Paasikivi believes that it still has positive effects. He believes that inventing this kind of prank can be a way to keep the morale up among his own troops.
He points out that it can create a sense of community and perhaps even a laugh in an otherwise serious situation. Besides, he thinks it would be entertaining for the soldiers to see how the Russians react when the can is opened. Perhaps they would find some satisfaction in seeing their opponents confused and perhaps even amused by the situation.
– It is possibly unnecessarily mean, says Joakim Paasikivi to Aftonbladet.

Joakim Paasikivi doubts whether surströmming could actually be used as a weapon in war. He believes that the effect would be very short-term.
Surströmming is not included in what are called b-weapons, i.e. biologically classified weapons. This means that the conversions that stop the use of biological weapons would not stop Ukrainian soldiers from using acid reflux against the Russians in war, as it is classified as food.
– If you open it in a bunker, you’ll probably have to dig a new one, he tells Aftonbladet.
