A remotely operated underwater drone has begun to extract Second World War ammunition from the Baltic Sea. This pilot programme aims to eliminate as much hazardous waste from this period as possible.
This operation is taking place in the Bay of Lübeck, in northern Germany, where polluting and dangerous war remnants, including bombs, mines and torpedoes, lie at a depth of about 20 meters. Most of them still contain chemicals that need to be neutralized.
