An Airbus A320 plane flying from Dublin to Rome was diverted to France's Évreux airbase following a bomb threat on November 5, 2026. The flight, carrying 185 passengers, was among several incidents across Europe in recent days where flights received similar threats, leading to diversions and security sweeps but no actual explosives found. This latest incident follows a string of hoaxes that have disrupted passenger flights, including a Wizz Air flight from London Luton to Bulgaria which had to be escorted by a fighter jet. The French Prime Minister's office is monitoring the situation closely.
