Libya

A country on the Mediterranean coast of North Africa, most of whose territory lies in the Sahara Desert, with its capital at Tripoli.
In 2011, France had to destroy an armored vehicle in a Libyan city. Their fix: a 300 kg concrete bomb — a casing of concrete, not explosives. No blast, no shrapnel; the GPS-guided block smashed the vehicle on impact. The USA had used the trick in Iraqi no-fly zones since the 1990s.
