Passenger aircraft in Europe received mass reports on November 5th that explosive devices were found on their boards.

By morning, more than ten aircraft flights within Europe had been threatened with bombing.

For example, two Ryanair aircraft operating flights from Copenhagen and Madrid landed in Sofia after receiving a report about an explosive device. Another aircraft flying from London landed at the airport in Ploiești.

According to Le Soir, a LOT aircraft from Warsaw also made an emergency landing in Brussels after receiving a report of a possible explosion. Meanwhile, LOT confirmed the incident involving its own aircraft today, but stated that the threat was false.

In Vienna, a Wizz Air passenger jet flying from Milan to Warsaw made an emergency landing.

Four aircraft en route to Prague also received threats of homemade explosive devices on board. "We do not underestimate the threat, so all necessary safety measures were taken with minimal impact on passengers and airport operations. After landing on all aircraft, pyrotechnic inspections will be carried out," said Czech police.

On November 3, about ten commercial flights in Europe had already become targets of explosion threats, with no suspicious devices found after inspection. At least four Ryanair flights, including another Dublin-Rome flight, as well as aircraft belonging to SAS, LOT, and Wizz Air, were affected.
