The Guardia Civil today confirmed the deactivation of a projectile in the Mola de Fornells, Menorca, a hiker spotted it on the 7th of January and alerted the Guardia Civil. Following the alert, the Explosives Deactivation Specialist Group of the Civil Guard in Maó went to the site and located the device. Once inspected, they found that it was a 75 millimetre artillery shell several decades old and that it had not exploded at the time, so it still contained the explosive charge inside.
