A reader called us after being startled by explosions that could be heard near the Bolesławiec Carrefour store.
It appears that the noise was heard throughout the city, even in the vicinity of the Starzyńskiego housing estate, where the windows in apartment blocks shook several times.
And indeed, as we read on the website of the Ośrodek Szkolenia Wojsk Poligonowych – Żagań:
From 13 to 17 December 2021, between 08:00 and 18:00, demolition work using explosives will be carried out at the Świętoszów Training Area, Artillery Hill, with local security measures in place.
