Old naval mine discovered at Patras' northern port

A corroded naval mine was discovered at the northern port of Patras in the northern Peloponnese on Sunday, the Coast Guard said.

According to them, the mine weighs 400 kilos and may have sunk at that spot during World War II. Authorities said the Coast Guard’s special operations officers are guarding it until army deminers arrive to remove it.
