PARIS: Six airports across France were evacuated Wednesday after emailed "threats of attack", a police source said, the latest in a series of
threats
in recent days.
The evacuations at Lille, Lyon, Nantes, Nice, Toulouse and Beauvais airport near Paris would allow authorities to "clear up any doubts" that the threats might be real, the source said.
A spokesman for
France's DGAC aviation authority
confirmed evacuations over bomb warnings only at Lille, Lyon, Toulouse and Beauvais. The DGAC's online dashboard showed significant delays at Lille, Lyon and Toulouse. "The situation is now normal," a post on Nice airport's X account said. Airport authorities at Lyon's Bron airport also said the all-clear had been given. AFP
