Warsaw - Several hundred residents will be evacuated from their homes on Wednesday so soldiers can remove a World War II-era bomb found in the South of Poland, local media reported. Residents of Raciborz, a mid-sized town in the country's Silesia region, will leave their homes for several hours so the military can clear the bomb found on Tuesday by a construction worker. Several streets have also been closed, reported the Polish Press Agency.
Police say the bomb weights 300 to 500 kilograms.
