Explosion kills British and Australian disposal experts

Two bomb disposal workers - one from the UK and one from Australia - have died after an explosion in the Solomon Islands.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media that Stephen "Luke" Atkinson and his Australian colleague Trent Lee worked for Norwegian People's Aid, which helps remove undetonated ordnance left over from the Pacific front of the Second World War.

It has not been made clear if the pair were trying to defuse a device when they died on Sunday evening in the city of Honiara.
