A large-scale evacuation is to take place in Berlin today to allow experts to defuse a World War Two bomb.
Buildings will be cleared in a 2,625 feet radius from the construction site where the bomb was discovered. Thousands of unexploded bombs from the 1939-45 war are found every year.
Police said there is no immediate danger from the 500-kilogram British bomb, which was found on Heidestrasse last Wednesday.
According to police, the area to be cleared includes Berlin Hauptbahnhof – the central railway station, an army hospital, the economy and transport ministries and the embassies of Indonesia and Uzbekistan.
