Singapore: SAF to carry out on-site disposal of WWII bomb along Jiak Kim Street

An on-site controlled disposal of a World War II bomb found in a construction site along Jiak Kim Street will be carried out next week, police said in an advisory on Saturday (Nov 16).

The authorities said they first learned of the war relic at about 2.30pm on Nov 12, after it was discovered during excavation works on the construction site.

The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team determined the war relic to be a 50kg WWII aerial bomb. The team assessed it as being unsafe to move and and that it had to be disposed of on-site.
