A new series of bomb threats caused more flight diversions across Europe on Friday, while also expanding to target a number of media organisations. British broadcaster Sky said it was one of a number of newsrooms that received a bomb threat. “We have carried out a security assessment and reported the matter to the relevant authorities,” a spokesperson said. Bulgaria’s Nova TV and the Irish public broadcaster RTE received emailed bomb threats from a purported “Mikhail Andropov”, headlined “Message to the West”, portraying the threats as a prelude to more disruptions across Europe. RTE briefly evacuated staff, including radio and television presenters, in Dublin after an email was received on Friday morning.
