New Wave of Bomb Hoaxes Targets European Flights
Aviation authorities in Europe are dealing with a new wave of fake bomb threats on passenger flights, including some bound for Israel.
Dozens of flights across Europe have become targets for bomb threats over the past week, all of which have proven to be hoaxes. This was reported by Reuters and i24NEWS. According to the reports, the misleading alerts forced dozens of aircraft to perform emergency landings or divert from their flight paths, including one flight en route to Israel. So far, no explosives have been found on any of the inspected aircraft, and local authorities have initiated extensive security checks to determine the origin of the threats. Further details have not yet been released.
