The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has seized more than 150 homemade bombs on a farm in the state of Virginia - a record find. A 36-year-old father of two was arrested.

It is believed to be the largest seizure of its kind in the history of the agency. Following a tip-off from a neighbor, FBI investigators searched the home of a 36-year-old man who lives with his wife and their two young children.

Explosives in backpack
They found a backpack with explosives in a bedroom. In the fridge, they discovered a container filled with the explosive HMTD, which was stored next to food and labeled "Do not touch". A notebook with instructions on how to make grenades and other explosive devices was also seized.

Biden portrait as a target
The 36-year-old allegedly used photos of President Joe Biden for target practice and expressed sympathy for political attacks. According to the public prosecutor's office, the man will not only be charged with the explosives findings, but also with unauthorized possession of a rifle.
