In Leicestershire, an unexploded 30mm shell, likely a World War II souvenir, was discovered in a shed, prompting the Ministry of Defence to dispatch explosive ordnance disposal troops for safe removal. Meanwhile, in the Solomon Islands, over 200 rusting WWII projectiles were unearthed near St Nicholas Anglican College during a sewage dig, highlighting the ongoing threat of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the region. The Royal Solomon Islands Police Force confirmed the discovery of these munitions, which date back to battles between Japanese and US forces, and have been linked to numerous casualties over the decades. The cache was safely relocated for destruction, emphasizing the dangers posed by such remnants of war. With estimates suggesting thousands of bombs remain buried in Honiara, the government continues to advocate for vigilance and reporting of any further discoveries. Historical battles, such as the six-month Battle of Guadalcanal, have left a lasting legacy of unexploded munitions in the Pacific, posing risks to current and future generations.
