Hannover evacuates 50,000 people in second-largest allied bomb disposal since WWII

‘The German city of Hannover is set to evacuate 50,000 people – around a tenth of its population – amid all-out preparations to defuse several World War II-era bombs that were dropped by the allies.
The evacuation will begin on Sunday at 9:00 am local time and affect 50,000 people, as well as public transportation and city infrastructure.
So far, experts have been able to locate only five unexploded bombs at 13 possible locations, Spiegel reports.
Emergency services believe most of the bombs lie under a large construction site in Hannover’s Vahrenwald, List, and Nordstadt districts. Seven care and elderly homes located in the vicinity, as well as a clinic and a Continental tire plant, are subject to evacuation.’
