Bomb threats disrupt Europe flights

In a series of bomb threats targeting European flights on Tuesday, about 10 European flights were disrupted, leading to the temporary closure of Warsaw airport and the deployment of Italian air force jets in Rome, according to various reports. No explosives were discovered following extensive searches, and all flights managed to take off and land safely in different European cities.

Irish budget carrier Ryanair was the most affected, with four of its flights targeted across destinations including Warsaw, Rome, Dublin, and Sofia. Two bomb warnings specifically mentioned flights to Warsaw, one operated by SAS Scandinavian Airlines from Copenhagen and another by Polish airline LOT from Heathrow. Italian air force jets were scrambled to escort a Ryanair flight from Dublin to Rome, while a Wizz Air flight from Bergamo to Sofia was also inspected after receiving an alert.
