Police discovered Soviet-era ammunition in a forest near Nová Bošáca, a town in western Slovakia's Trenčín region. After implementing safety measures, authorities transported the munitions to a secure ammunition storage facility at the police station in Trenčín, the regional capital. Such discoveries of wartime or Cold War-era ordnance are not uncommon in Slovakia, which was part of Czechoslovakia and the Soviet sphere of influence until 1989.
