In France, four planes urgently landed after reports of bomb threats

Four passenger planes made emergency landings in France after reports of possible explosive devices on board, the office of Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said. With reference to Agence France-Presse, TASS informs about this.

Three planes landed at Paris' Orly airport, another in Bordeaux. All landings went without incident. Aircraft are examining sappers.

The prime minister's office said an investigation was underway to determine the source of the threats affecting Europe.

Earlier, on November 5, more than ten passenger flights in various European countries urgently landed due to similar reports. According to preliminary data, none of the threats during the inspections was confirmed.

In France, an Aer Lingus plane en route from Dublin to Rome, accompanied by French fighters, was sent to a military air base near Evreux. Later it became known about the beginning of the investigation against the pilot: initially he refused to comply with the instructions of the air traffic controllers to land at a military base and requested permission to land at a civilian airport.
