A bomb weighing 150 kilos with its detonator intact has just been found at a construction site in the Mekong Delta province of Tra Vinh.

The military command in Tra Vinh Province confirmed on Monday that the MK81 bomb, which was left from the American War, was found at a construction site in Truong Long Hoa Commune.


"Local people had informed us about their discovery and we had immediately sent a team to inspect the area," the military command said. "After finding that the bomb still had the detonator, we've put up warning signs to prevent people from entering the area while removing it from the site and handling it in accordance with protocols."

Last October, two other bombs weighing over 100 kilos each were also found and safely defused in the province.
