At least 300 schools in Italy evacuated after bomb threats, threats in the UK
Threatening emails were sent to over three hundred schools in Italy, claiming the presence of explosives and signed by Mikhail Andropov. The police evacuated students and investigated the threats, which were deemed not credible. Similar threats were reported in the UK and Ireland, where authorities advised schools to remain open, treating the messages as hoaxes. No explosives were found in Italy, and the Italian Prime Minister assured there was no danger.
