Prague Airport Begins to Operate Again After Bomb Threat
Adjust font size:

The Prague airport, which stopped for about two hours on Wednesday afternoon because of an anonymous bomb threat, started to operate again, airport spokeswoman Pavlina Hajkova said.

 

The airport started to operate at 18:10 local time again after police searched the whole airport, from which no planes were allowed to take off and all the landed airplanes had to wait on side runways with passengers aboard. But no bomb was found.

 

The iDnes Internet news server received an anonymous email, which wrote that a bomb may blast at the Prague-Ruzyne airport "in the area for passengers" between 16:00 and 18:00 (local time) on Wednesday, Prague police spokesman Ladislav Bernasek said.

 

Prague police and the foreigner police have been investigating the incident.

 

Last week, all Christian schools in Prague were threatened with a bomb by an anonymous perpetrator. The police adopted strict security measures and searched all the schools, where classes were cancelled. No bomb was found.
