A phosphorus bomb was discovered and safely diffused at a Frankfurt Airport construction site on Friday night. Law enforcement officials confirmed the successful diffuser process. Sources state that phosphorus bombs were often employed on a large scale during World War II. The hazardous discovery was made during the progression of construction work close to the new Terminal 3. Authorities established a security zone with a perimeter of roughly 1000 meters around the discover area. This led to the A5 motorway's temporary closure, which passes by the airport. Law enforcement officials anticipate the lanes to be reopened imminently.
