Italian authorities evacuated hundreds of schools after an emailed bomb threat. Premier Giorgia Meloni said there was no indication of any “concrete danger” and that the threats on Wednesday appeared aimed at causing alarm. She said investigations were underway and called a meeting of ministers for later in the day. The Italian Education Ministry said the e-mail threat was received by over 6,300 schools. Police in Northern Ireland said they were conducting “urgent inquiries” after a threatening email was sent to hundreds of schools. Police in Scotland said they were treating similar messages as hoaxes and were not requiring schools to evacuate.
