In Hamburg's Sternschanze district, over 5,000 residents evacuated after a WWII-era bomb discovery forced a 300-meter exclusion zone, showcasing the city's past munitions challenges.
The bomb, found during construction at a primary school, was safely defused by experts after three hours of evacuation efforts due to a nearby nursing home.
Germany frequently encounters WWII explosives, often defused without incident. A comparable event occurred in Cologne, illustrating the ongoing legacy of wartime munitions.
