An unexploded GBU “bunker buster” bomb, dropped during US-Israeli attacks and buried 13 metres (42 feet) beneath a residential area in Iran's Yazd province, has been successfully neutralised and removed, The Caspian Post reports, citing Al Jazeera.

Yazd deputy provincial governor for security said that the bomb struck a residential area during the war but failed to detonate and was lodged deep underground.

The deputy governor confirmed the high-risk operation was “carried out through the joint efforts of the IRGC and law enforcement bomb disposal units of Yazd province”.
