Bomb alerts disrupt flights across Europe

Bomb alerts continued to disrupt flights across Europe on Friday, 6 November, following threats affecting at least 25 flights on Thursday, Euronews reported.

A Ryanair flight from Rome landed in Lisbon after a reported bomb warning. Explosives had not been confirmed aboard at the time of the report. A Wizz Air service from Prague to Rome was diverted to Venice.

French authorities reported four further alerts involving aircraft over their territory. All landed safely, with security inspections underway.

EU officials said it was too early to establish whether the incidents were connected.
