在警方发现一个“可疑包裹”后，肯特郡的拆弹小组实施了一次控制爆破。
The bomb squad has carried out a controlled explosion in Kent after police found a "suspicious package".
肯特郡警方于周三英国夏令时22点过后不久前往福克斯通杜拉路的一处房产处理一起火灾时，发现了该物品。警方表示，附近的居民已被疏散，道路也被封闭。
Kent Police found the item as they attended a fire just after 22:00 BST on Wednesday at a property in Dura Way, Folkestone. Nearby residents were evacuated and the road was closed, they said.
该部队补充说，作为预防措施，国防部的一个爆炸物处理小组实施了控制爆破。
An Explosive Ordnance Disposal team from the Ministry of Defence (MoD) carried out a controlled detonation as a precaution, the force added.
住在隔壁街道的一名女性表示，周四大约04:50时，警察敲了她的门，告诉她其家人需要“立即离开”。
A woman living on a neighbouring street said police knocked on her door and told her her family needed to "leave immediately" at around 04:50 Thursday.
她对英国广播公司说：“我们这里有孩子——一个青少年和两个更小的孩子——我们有狗、猫以及诸如此类的一切，所以我们对此有点担心。”“我们很幸运附近有家人，所以我们去和他们住在一起。”这名希望保持匿名的女性表示，还有其他六处房产也受到了影响。她补充说：“我们对孩子们说的话有所保留，但他们完全没事。”“我想他们可能觉得这一切有点刺激。”目前正在对该事件进行调查。
"We've got kids here - a teenager and two younger children - we've got dogs, cats and all that kind of stuff, so we were a bit concerned about that," she told the BBC. "We're lucky we've got family nearby, so we went to stay with them". The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said six other properties were affected as well. "We limited what we told the kids, but they were absolutely fine. "I think they probably thought it was all a bit exciting," she added. Inquiries into the incident are being carried out.
国防部在周四发送给英国广播公司的一份声明中表示，该“任务仍在进行中”。一位发言人补充说：“我们目前无法提供任何更新。”
In a statement sent to the BBC on Thursday, the MoD said the "task was still ongoing". "We are unable to provide any update currently," a spokesperson added.
