Polish general fired after missing anti-tank mines ‘found in IKEA warehouse’
The explosives were reportedly missing for weeks.
When train carriages were returned to Poland’s state-owned railway company, it emerged that five pallets of mines were missing.
Onet reported that the missing mines were carried on a civilian carriage through several Polish cities, including Szczecin, Poznań, Warsaw and Białystok, over the course of nearly two weeks. They were eventually located near Orla, a village in northeastern Poland, inside a warehouse belonging to furniture giant IKEA.

Don't panic, you will have extra parts left over.
Whole bags of nuts, nails, staples to decorate the sides.

getting lost in IKEA sounds a bit more risky now
It takes a lot of pressure to trigger an anti-tank mine. I don't think that you'd manage it just stepping on it.

This is a current Polish anti-tank mine. WP says that it's apparently similar to the Soviet TM-62.

Luckily it wasn't an American IKEA or it would've been a bloodbath.
SCP-3008 on hard mode
No man, I'm almost convinced that this was a result of SCP-3008 residents getting fucking serious about the Staff.
You should be good if you stay out of the Authorized Personnel Only areas. Those are mined.
Waiting for the day 3000 IKEA desks in Russia all explode at once.
Welcome to IKEA! Cheap furniture to the left, heavy armament to the right, low prices all the way!!!
I was going to tell a Polish joke but this is one.
It's a joke that wrote itself.
