European flights hit by wave of bomb threats, emergency landings

At least 27 flights across Europe received bomb threats on Thursday, causing emergency landings, diversions, and military escorts, with authorities calling the threats 'malicious' hoaxes, the Korea Times and other outlets report. The threats targeted flights to and from major cities including London, Dublin, and Helsinki, and no hazardous materials were found, according to AP and CNBC reports cited by Dong-A Ilbo. The incidents follow recent suspected Russian sabotage attacks on European rail and refrigeration networks, Chosun Ilbo notes. Korean media coverage focuses on the scale of the disruption, with Maeil Business reporting fighter jets scrambled amid the chaos, while an official quoted by the Korea Times described the threats as 'malicious' hoaxes.
