AN unexploded 220-kilogram World War II bomb has been defused and removed from Tokyo's business district after a delicate hour-long operation, officials say.
Around 200 residents evacuated their homes within a 100m radius of the 230kg bomb, which was found at a construction site in Motoakasaka area of Minato ward, as soldiers worked on removing the device.
Japanese Self Defence Force members started to defuse the rusty ordnance, which was discovered 4.5m underground, local officials said.
The area was declared safe shortly afterwards, they added.
Tokyo was a target of intense US air raids near the end of the World War II and around 70 unexploded bombs are found in the capital every year, according to the local administrative office.
