Why is there no Arabic on these containers? And why are they all labelled in English, at least that I can see. I heard one soldier on some show say that what he saw there was mostly written in French and German.
As the old FedExer here let me say that the orange "Explosives" label is mandated by IATA for all air transport items that are considered to be explosives. English is mandatory. I'm trying to remember from my hazmat classes, but I'm pretty sure that "1.1" is the least dangerous form of explosives (like "Class C" under the US CFR 49 shipping reg)s. It certainly would not appear to be "high" explosives, but I'll check to make sure about "1.1"
At FedEx, we were only able to take fairly stable explosives, usually they were under the domestic US regulations which is a different system from the international (IATA).
