Chaos in Delhi: Bomb Threats Disrupt School Operations

Bomb threats sent to 40 Delhi schools triggered mass evacuations and suspended classes. The anonymous email demanded $30,000, warning about planted bombs. Emergency services swiftly responded, finding no suspicious items. The email, sent from a VPN, echoes a similar unsolved threat from May.

On Monday morning, Delhi witnessed a wave of panic as bomb threats hit 40 prominent schools, leading to class suspensions and sending students home.

The threats, delivered via email, demanded USD 30,000 under the pretext of planted explosives. Authorities swiftly responded, deploying bomb detection and emergency teams to the targeted locations.

By mid-morning, officials reported no suspicious findings, though operations continued. The email, traced to a Sunday night delivery from a generic address using a VPN, aligns with an unsolved case from May where similar threats were made city-wide.
