All over the news now. Seems like a big deal.

Article says they detonated "a bomb" on site and the people were only allowed to stand 300 meters away - doesn't sound like much of a "bomb" to me?!

I think reports in the news were saying 4kg of explosive. I had no idea how big of bomb this makes but you can find some videos on youtube, like this one for 5kg.

Maybe not huge but would have killed the a lot of the tourist trade over Christmas. Anyway, well done to the police.
