Hundreds of schools evacuated in Italy, Ireland, and Scotland due to bomb threats
In Italy, over 300 schools faced evacuations due to bomb threats linked to a message from a supposed Mikhail Andropov. The alarming email claimed to contain explosives and threatened violence against students and officials. Similar threats were reported in Scotland and Ireland, prompting evacuations and class interruptions. Authorities suspect a coordinated campaign to disrupt daily life across Europe. The Italian Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, has called for an emergency meeting to address the situation, stating that investigations have not revealed any real danger.
