The bomb is rusty on its shell measured at 0.35m wide. It is guessed the bomb was dropped there during the war time before 1975.

The bomb has lied under a big pile of scrap which has existed in the school for decades.

Local authorities and an army unit were sent to the location to protect safety. They are planning to move it away and defuse it next week.

Many bombs and explosives and other weapon remnants have been unearthed in the province.
