Authorities say an unexploded WW2 ordnance found in Exmouth is "much larger" than a second historic device discovered at a construction site in Plymouth.
The two wartime bombs were both discovered yesterday.

Iran protests: what we know so far about the anti-government demonstrations
The Iranian government has signalled that detained protesters are to face speedy trials and executions, defying a threat by the US president, Donald Trump, to intervene if authorities continue their crackdown.

Just how luminous is this holly tree. Especially when it is surrounded by grey, dead hedgerows. Is it any wonder our ancestors found it so special and it's become central to winter folklore. ❤️🌿❤️🌿❤️🌿❤️ #Devon #EastDevon #folklore #winter

Just a note to say how wonderful it was to go to the pub today. It's been a long journey back to health after catching the flu a few weeks ago. Anyway, here's my Camellia starting to bud and this is me looking forward to the future again. ❤️ #Devon #SundayMotivation

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
