Europe schools hit by mass bomb threats, evacuations

On Nov. 11, schools across Europe received bomb threat emails, prompting evacuations in several countries. Yonhap reports that after threats against passenger planes and media outlets, threat emails claiming bombs were planted were sent to schools across Europe. Chosun Ilbo adds that around 7,000 schools in Europe received bomb threats, causing students and teachers to evacuate, with threats even targeting Italy's prime minister. Korea Times separately reports that at least 300 schools in Italy were evacuated after receiving a bomb alert message, part of a series of threats and cyberattacks. Korean media frame this as an escalation, following earlier hoaxes that disrupted flights and forced newsrooms to evacuate, as noted by KBS World and Korea Times reports from Nov. 6-7. Korean outlets describe the situation as a major disruption, with Chosun Ilbo noting the threats follow a 'fridge cyber attack' attributed to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, though no hazardous materials have been found so far.
