Bomb threat spree hits newsrooms amid flight disruptions across Europe
Bomb threats against flights and media organisations across eight European countries triggered security checks, evacuations and fighter-jet escorts, with Czech police inspecting aircraft at Prague Airport after threats against at least nine flights. Irish police searched RTÉ's Dublin headquarters and other outlets evacuated, while Ireland's government said the hoax claims were likely part of a coordinated campaign of disruption; investigations are ongoing.
