[origin: EP0393240A2] A mine for blocking roads is formed by an explosive charge (3) arranged on the rear side of a crash barrier (1). The gutter-shaped recess (4) of the crash barrier (1) thus forms for the explosive charge (3) a covering which is deformed into a projectile when the charge (3) is detonated.
