Berlin's Tegel Airport was closed for about two hours on Wednesday after an unexploded World War Two bomb was found and defused, an airport spokesman said.

The 500 lb British bomb was defused by explosives experts and flights resumed after 8 pm, police said.

About 20 incoming flights were re-routed to Berlin Schoenefeld airport and 10 outward-bound flights were postponed.

Passengers were evacuated from one of the airport's terminals, the spokesman said.

The bomb was discovered during construction work at the airport, which was built after World War Two.
