Bomb safely disarmed in Berlin during World War II era: More than 12,000 residents granted access to their homes once again - Explosive device from World War I in Berlin successfully disarmed, allowing over 12,000 individuals to resume normal activities.
In a significant operation, bomb disposal experts from the explosives clearance service (Kampfmittelräumdienst) successfully defused a World War II bomb found in the Berlin-Spandau district. The bomb, discovered in the Spree, prompted the evacuation of around 7,500 people, primarily in the district of Mitte.
The police were involved in the evacuation and inspection process, ensuring the safety of the affected residents. Specialists from the Berlin police used a high-pressure water jet to defuse the bomb, which took approximately seven hours.
Following the successful defusal, all 7,500 affected people were allowed to return home. The bomb, initially believed to be a potential threat to the safety of 12,400 people, was later deemed safe after an inspection.
It's worth noting that the bomb found in the Spree was in a different location than the previous one removed from a location in Berlin. The bomb defused in Berlin was not the same as the one that caused the evacuation in a previous incident.
The successful defusal of the bomb in Berlin marks the completion of the operation and allows the affected residents to return to their homes, ensuring peace and tranquility in the city once more. The bomb discovered in the Spree did not pose a potential threat to the safety of the remaining 4,900 people, as initially feared.
