Central intelligence agencies trace hoax bomb threats to Indian flights to IP addresses in London and Germany

Days after multiple bomb threats to flights were received on social media, Central intelligence agencies have traced IP addresses where threats were posted to London and Germany, The Indian Express has learnt.

More than 20 flights of Indian carriers — both domestic and international — have received bomb threats this week. On Monday, three international flights of Indian carriers received bomb threats, and another 10 flights received similar threats on Tuesday. A day after, there were at least six such threats. These threats came via social media platforms, and after security checks, they were declared to be fake.
