An ongoing heat wave in Germany has lowered water levels on numerous
rivers, including the Elbe River, where dangerous World War II munitions have
been exposed.
Police are warning against touching grenades, mines and other possibly
live explosives exposed in areas that were once battlegrounds in the eastern
German states of Saxony-Anhalt and Saxony during World War II, Deutsche-Welle
reports.
Saxony-Anhalt police spokeswoman Grit Merker told the newspaper at
least 22 grenades, mines and other explosives have been found so far this year.
