Police in Northern Ireland have ordered to evacuate more than 400 homes to remove what is suspected to be a World War II-era bomb. The removal operation is expected to be a five-day process, police said on Sunday. The device was uncovered on Friday in Newtownards, an area of County Down, which is located 15 kilometres east of Belfast. “I appreciate the disruption that this has caused, however keeping people safe is paramount and we will not take any risks,” North Down and Ards District Commander Superintendent Johnston McDowell said. “I want to thank those who may be affected for their patience now.”
