Twin bomb threats targeted Indian airliners on Tuesday, forcing an Air India flight from New Delhi to Chicago to make an emergency landing in Iqaluit, Canada, while fighter jets were scrambled in Singapore. All 211 passengers were safely relocated, with the threat later deemed a hoax.
Two bomb threats targeting Indian airlines on opposite sides of the world caused disruptions on Tuesday, leading to an emergency landing in the Arctic and the scrambling of fighter jets in Singapore. The incidents are part of a recent string of hoax threats that have affected Indian airlines.
An Air India flight from New Delhi to Chicago was forced to make an emergency landing in Iqaluit, Canada’s northernmost city. The airline reported that the flight had been the subject of an online security threat, prompting its diversion as a precaution. All 211 passengers and crew were safely moved to the airport, according to Canadian authorities.
Meanwhile, fighter jets were scrambled in Singapore in response to another bomb threat directed at an Indian airline in Asia. Air India confirmed that the recent threats faced by Indian airlines have all been false alarms. Authorities in New Delhi and other countries are continuing investigations into the wave of hoax bomb warnings.
