In Warsaw, 22 unexploded munitions, believed to date back to World War II, were discovered, prompting the evacuation of a residential building and an office building, RMF 24 reports.

The dangerous finds were discovered at a construction site near the intersection of Grzybowska and Żelazna streets in the Wola district.

According to police, bomb disposal experts arrived at the scene, and the area has been cordoned off and placed under guard.

"We received a report about the discovery of 22 unexploded munitions at a construction site. The evacuation of two buildings was required. We are ensuring the safety of the area, and a bomb disposal patrol is working at the scene," said Wola police spokesperson Marta Sułowska.

Because of the incident, traffic restrictions were introduced in the area. Warsaw Public Transport redirected buses on routes 106 and 157 along detours in both directions.

Route 106 toward Mariensztat runs via Solidarności Avenue and John Paul II Avenue, with a turnaround at UN Roundabout, after which it continues along John Paul II Avenue and Grzybowska Street. In the opposite direction, the bus runs along Grzybowska Street, John Paul II Avenue, and Prosta Street.

Buses on route 157 in both directions have been redirected via Żelazna Street, Solidarności Avenue, John Paul II Avenue, and Jerozolimskie Avenue.
