Flight from Tel Aviv to Vienna makes emergency landing in Bulgaria after bomb threat

A passenger flight travelling from Tel Aviv in Israel to Vienna, the capital of Austria, has made an emergency landing in Bulgaria. The reason was a threat that a bomb was on board.

The British news outlet Sky News, the source of this report, has so far given only this basic information. It does not say which airline operated the flight, how many people were on board, at which Bulgarian airport the aircraft landed, or exactly when it happened. There is also no information on whether the threat proved credible, whether anyone was hurt, or how passengers will continue their journey.

The report will be updated once official details on the circumstances of the incident and any investigation become available.
