Thousands of people have been evacuated in central Berlin after two unexploded World War II bombs were found.

One of the bombs was found in the River Spree on Thursday, with German police sent door-to-door ordering around 7,500 people to leave their homes.

The discovery was made only a day after another huge 100kg World War II bomb was found in the Spandau district on Wednesday.

The Spandau bomb is set to be defused today, with more than 12,000 people ordered out of the area.
