IQN (NewsDesk): A fresh wave of bomb threats hit flights and airports across Europe on Friday, marking the third such wave in a week, as authorities investigate whether the pattern reflects a coordinated hybrid campaign rather than isolated hoaxes.
Friday’s threats followed Thursday’s disruption of nearly two dozen flights, with Dublin’s national broadcaster RTE also evacuated after a threat was called in against its offices. Earlier in the week, aircraft from Ryanair, Wizz Air, SAS, LOT and Austrian Airlines were diverted or forced into emergency landings across Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, Belgium and the Czech Republic. No explosive devices have been found in any of the incidents so far, and most threats have arrived via anonymous email or phone call.
The repeated, near-daily nature of the threats has fueled concern among security officials that the disruption is deliberate and coordinated rather than coincidental, though no group has claimed responsibility and investigations remain ongoing in multiple countries.
