Arbatax, bomb threat in Cala Moresca: forbidden area
The device discovered on the cliff by a bather, intervenes the CaptaincyBomb alarm in Cala Moresca, on the coast of Tortolì . It was a swimmer this afternoon who noticed an anomalous casing between the cliff. He called the Arbatax Coast Guard whose personnel, once they arrived on site and verified the report, immediately evacuated the beach. Local police officers cordoned off the area. It is likely that it is a remnant of war, similar in size to a grenade.
The presumed bomb will probably be detonated tomorrow, after authorization by the Prefecture of Nuoro, by experts from the demining unit of the Navy coming from Cagliari.
The Circomare, under the command of vessel lieutenant Mattia Caniglia, has taken the necessary measures: it has forbidden navigation, bathing and other activities in an area of sea and coast for a stretch of 150 meters from the place of discovery.
