WWII bomb to be safely detonated by police on Wednesday

Police bomb disposal experts plan to safely detonate a WWII-era bomb found in the Záluží chemical complex in Most on Wednesday afternoon. The operation, dependent on weather and work progress, will begin on Tuesday at 1:00 PM, according to Karel Čadil, head of the Czech Police's Bomb Disposal Unit. The bomb will be surrounded by a protective "sarcophagus" made of at least 400 sandbags before being detonated. The bomb, discovered during excavation work, features a chemical timer that prohibits movement until Tuesday afternoon.
