About 1,000 WWII Bombs Found Underwater at Greece’s Thessaloniki Port

The scale of the find — roughly a thousand devices and thousands of tonnes of ordnance — turns a routine port expansion into a clearance and liability problem, not just a construction delay. It affects the port authority, contractors and the wider supply chain that depends on Thessaloniki's capacity, since the timeline now hinges on authorities outside the port's control. Whether the removal proceeds without disrupting operations is the open question.
