If people don't leave the cordoned area it becomes an emergency pretty quickly.
On finding a newly disturbed bomb is it should be treated as if it may go off at any time. It's already an emergency.
We've got pretty good at not settling these off, especially as the age of the detonators helps, but that bomb is not safe.
