The delicate art of defusing Second World War bombs
Original: The art of defusing a second world war bomb
The Guardian has published an interactive feature on bomb disposal experts still defusing unexploded Second World War devices found across Britain and Europe, with one expert noting a bomb 'could knock a whole street down'. Decades after the war, hundreds of devices are discovered each year during construction work, requiring careful evacuation and controlled detonation.
Why now: The feature is trending because unexploded wartime bombs keep turning up during construction and excavations, making the subject a recurring and alarming news topic.
