PRAGUE, Nov 5 (Reuters) – Four airplanes heading ​to Prague ‌received bomb threats on Thursday and police were ‌preparing ​for ⁠their landing, ⁠Czech police said on X, adding they assessed ​the credibility of the ⁠threats ⁠as low.

“Nevertheless, ​we are not ​underestimating the threat, which ‌is why all necessary security measures ⁠have been activated with minimal impact ⁠on ‌passengers and ⁠airport operations,” ​police ‌said. “After landing, ​all aircraft ⁠will undergo pyrotechnic inspections.”
