Historic World War II Bomb Discovered At Frankfurt Airport

On Friday, a World War II-era phosphorus bomb was discovered at Frankfurt Airport during construction activities, as confirmed by police reports.

These incendiary bombs, known for their use of white phosphorus during the war, were a significant military tool.

The bomb was scheduled for controlled detonation later in the day, prompting authorities to cordon off a 1,000-meter radius around the site in advance.

Despite this precaution, airport operations and nearby roads have not been disrupted, according to a spokesperson.

No evacuations have been necessary thus far.
