During a survey along the Desenzano coastline, another grenade was found in the lake. This operation is part of the search for abandoned war ordnance in the lake, involving the military, Navy, Coast Guard, local police, and Red Cross.
Divers conducted investigations on the seabed and discovered a small-caliber German artillery grenade dating back to World War II, similar to other bombs recovered in the past.
The procedure for managing this situation will be the same as previously adopted: army bomb disposal experts will take charge of the bomb and carry out the detonation operations in the Lonato quarry, usually used for these interventions.
The fact that war ordnance is still being found in the lake underscores the importance of continuing to carefully monitor the depths of Lake Garda. It is essential to maintain a high level of attention to this problem to avoid potential accidents or damage to people or structures in the area.
