Paris' Gare du Nord, Europe's busiest train station, ground to a halt on Friday while an unexploded World War Two bomb was defused, causing the cancellation of all Eurostar trains for the day and huge disruptions to nearby traffic.
Railway workers found the 500 kilogram (1,100 lb) device 2 metres underground at around 0230 GMT in Saint-Denis, a northern Parisian suburb, during construction work on a bridge. Police say the area is known to contain "vestiges" of the war.
Une découverte inattendue. Ce vendredi 7 mars, une bombe de la Seconde Guerre mondiale a été retrouvée « au milieu des voies » sur la commune de Saint-Denis à 2,5 km de la gare du Nord de Paris. En conséquence, le trafic est interrompu à la gare du Nord, a indiqué la SNCF.
Aucun TGV, Eurostar, RER, ni TER ne circule.
reprise du traffic vers 18h
Au total, les perturbations ont touché "500 trains"
et "600. 000 personnes",
L’interruption du trafic a été décidée « à la demande de la préfecture de police de Paris » après la découverte de la bombe « non explosée » dans la nuit de jeudi à vendredi « lors de travaux réalisés en amont de Paris gare du Nord », explique la société ferroviaire dans un communiqué transmis à l’AFP. Elle mesure un mètre et pèse 500 kg.
un quart du milliard d’obus largué pendant la Première Guerre mondiale n’a pas explosé. Le chiffre est de 15 % pour les 600 000 tonnes de bombes utilisées lors du second conflit mondial. Ces explosifs sont peut-être vieux d’au moins 80 ans, mais ils n’en sont pas moins dangereux.
Rien qu'en 2023, le service de déminage de la Sécurité civile a réalisé près de 13 000 interventions pour des munitions des deux guerres mondiales.
