SINGAPORE - About 600 residential units around Jiak Kim Street, which is off Kim Seng Road, were evacuated by Monday morning for a controlled on-site disposal of a 50kg World War II aerial bomb war relic.
The bomb, which was found at a construction site in Jiak Kim Street last Tuesday, will be disposed of between 8am and 6pm by the Singapore Armed Forces Explosive Ordnance Disposal team. Residents had been notified of actions they needed to take, including leaving their windows open or slightly ajar and securing items in their homes. This is a precautionary measure in the unlikely possibility that windows might shatter due to pressure differences.
