Some 400 pupils at an elementary school in southeastern Poland were evacuated Today when unexploded war-era missiles were found during renovation work, dpa cited the Polish Press Agency (PAP) as reporting. Workers found the missiles in the town of Jaroslawiec while working on a sidewalk near the school, the school's director told PAP. An army team called to the scene found more weapons, including two grenades and rifle ammunition within a couple dozen metres of where the missiles were found. Unexploded weapons from World War II are occasionally found in the former Soviet bloc. In October, a gardener found a war-era grenade on the grounds of the University of Warsaw. The discovery lead to a survey of the grounds that uncovered more weapons and lead to the evacuation of around 1,000 people in December.
