Bomb threats hit more than a dozen European flights, forcing diversions and emergency landings

A wave of bomb threats Thursday forced flight diversions and emergency landings across Europe after more than a dozen flights were targeted.One plane headed from Dublin to Rome was diverted to a military base in France, with all 157 people on board safe. Authorities say security sweeps have so far found no explosives or suspicious materials.The incident follows several similar hoax threats earlier this week. Airports in Madrid, Milan, Bucharest, Warsaw and London were among those targeted.Some flights arrived at their destination safely but were ultimately searched by experts, while others had to be diverted. For example, four flights headed to Prague were threatened with some kind of explosive device being on board. But once they all arrived, they were searched and no explosive devices were found.IN CASE YOU MISSED IT | US removes all Air Force bombers from UK base following new threatUK Secretary of State for Transport Heidi Alexander has described the threats as a malicious hoax.
