Explosion kills four
2005-05-08
TANK: Four tribesmen were killed and one was wounded when an unexploded artillery shell they found in a forest exploded in South Waziristan Agency's Sarwakai sub-division on Saturday, residents said. Tribesman Rakhmal Jan found the shell and brought it home to extract the explosives in it. The shell exploded, killing Rakhmal, Zaabta Khan, Mujeebullah and Rakhmal's son instantly, residents told Daily Times. The wounded tribesman, Naval Khan, was taken to Miranshah in serious condition. This incident was the second of its kind involving unexploded artillery shells.
"Hey, Zaabta! Look what I found!"
"An unexploded artillery shell! Keen! What're you gonna do with it?"
"Extract the explosives, of course! Hand me that claw hammer!"
"Hokay!"

What you need to do is melt the metal casing. Build a big fire.
