It may explode at any moment.

Every year, many children and youth are injured after touching or playing with ammunition they found in a field or other abandoned place. In general, the ammunition is old and unexploded – leftovers from army and security forces exercises or from wars.

·          Don’t endanger yourself.

·          Don’t crowd around the ammunition.

·          Run away from it immediately, and warn other people passing by or standing there to move away.

·          Call the police immediately by dialing 100, If you are unable to do so, ask someone else to do it for you via a cellphone or other nearby telephone.

·          Inform the police about the exact location of the ammunition.

·          Give the police an accurate description of the ammunition: type, size, shape, color, etc. so that disposal experts can use suitable equipment for handling the ammunition and reach the location as quickly as possible.

·          While you call the police, ask someone to carry on warning people about the ammunition until the police arrive on the scene.

When the police arrive, within a few minutes, they will move people away, close the area off and handle the ammunition in a professional and safe way.

If that is not possible, the police will neutralize the ammunition on the spot.
