Two men were killed when workers at a building site set off a buried World War 1 weapon while trying to dig it out, in Ypres, Belgium. At least two more were injured during the resulting explosion, one of whom is in critical condition.
The World War 1 weapon that exploded is thought to be a shell or a grenade. Ypres was a strategic city during WWI, and was shelled by the German forces at the time. It is believed that thousands of unexploded shells from WWI remain buried in the region.
