> A wave of hoax bomb threats disrupted at least 27 passenger flights across Europe, prompting emergency landings and diversions. A suspected threat rerouted an Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Rome to France, where fighter jets escorted it to an airbase and 151 passengers and six crew were taken to safety. Bulgarian jets also escorted three airliners to the ground; inspections found no suspicious items.
