A suspected piece of World War II ordnance explodes under a stilt house in an Indonesian fishing village, killing five people and injuring nearly 20, police say. The blast occurs in Indonesia’s restive eastern Papua region on Sunday afternoon, producing a thunderous boom and a visible plume of smoke, with footage aired by Kompas TV showing flames followed by thick smoke. Authorities say the source is strongly believed to be a bomb or mortar left over from the war. After the explosion, damage is reported across the neighborhood: Inquirer.net says nine homes are destroyed, while other outlets focus on the casualties and injuries. CBS News and South Africa’s IOL report the same casualty figures attributed to police. Local residents are shaken by the incident, and the event is treated as an ordnance detonation involving an unexploded device from the World War II era. Investigations and assessments are expected to follow to determine the exact type of ordnance and to assess further risks in the area.
