Lisbon-Rome Flight Targeted by Bomb Threat Hoax, No Explosives Found

Lisbon-Rome Flight Targeted by Bomb Threat Hoax, No Explosives Found

A flight scheduled to travel from Lisbon to Rome, FR8197, was the subject of a bomb threat hoax. The Special Police Unit (UEP) conducted a thorough security inspection of the aircraft while it was still approaching Lisbon airport from Rome. Following the inspection, authorities confirmed that no explosive device or suspicious object was detected on board. All passengers and their luggage underwent an additional security check, which also yielded no irregularities. This incident is part of a broader pattern of false alarms that have affected numerous commercial flights across Europe this week. These hoaxes have led to several planes being rerouted or escorted by fighter jets. While no overall claim of responsibility has been made for the widespread disruptions, threats sent to airports in Rome and Sofia contained misogynistic messages and were attributed to 'fighters of the Male State.' The hoaxes have predominantly targeted low-cost carriers and flights connected to Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, and Italy....
