Partially Defused – Bauer finds Russian bomb in Burgenland

Date:

A farmer found a Russian aerial bomb weighing about 70 kilos on his field in the municipality of Neusiedl am See on Thursday. The man reported his surprise find to the police, who immediately informed the army’s mine clearance service.

While a farmer on the “Hutweide” was doing his daily fieldwork, he accidentally tripped over an aerial bomb. After the police arrived at the scene of discovery, they inspected the bomb and passed the matter on to the demining service of the Austrian armed forces. Because great caution was required, the fire brigade supported the police in the extensive cordoning off.
