Bomb threats, primarily via social media, were sent to more than 200 Indian carrier flights in nine days, forcing some overseas flights to be rerouted.
Relatedly, the government has requested that social media companies like Meta and X exchange information on bogus bomb threats and has begun to identify the people responsible for these calls and messages.
Citing the public interest, the government has also requested assistance from leading international technology companies in identifying the perpetrators of these hoax calls.
According to top sources, the government has identified some of the individuals responsible for making fictitious bomb threats against airlines and is taking appropriate action. No additional information about the origins of these phony calls and messages or the individuals responsible was supplied by the government sources.
This narrative is still evolving. It’s going to be changed.
