Wartime Bomb Found In Danube
Efforts to remove a bomb found in the Danube near Rákóczi híd were suspended overnight, the Armed Forces announced on Wednesday. An industrial diver discovered a bomb on Tuesday as he was cleaning sewerage, but its position was not marked with buoys.

Bomb disposal experts eventually located the device again, but could not raise it safely from the Danube. They will resume their work today.
