Bomb Threats In Delhi Schools Continue, Fresh Warnings Received
The string of bomb threats continued in the schools in the national capital on Saturday. Some schools in Delhi, including DPS RK Puram, received fresh bomb threat emails this morning, Delhi Police said.
Delhi Schools Bomb Threat: A bomb threat was reported at Delhi Public School (DPS), RK Puram, early Saturday morning, marking the third such incident targeting schools in the national capital this week. "We received a call about a bomb threat at DPS RK Puram at 6:09 am," a Delhi Fire Services official confirmed. The fire department, local police, dog squads, and bomb detection teams quickly arrived at the school to launch a thorough search operation.
According to a police official, no suspicious objects have been found so far, but the search is still ongoing to ensure the safety of students and staff. Authorities are treating the matter with utmost seriousness, given the repeated nature of these threats.
Series of Bomb Threats Across Delhi Schools
This incident follows a spate of similar threats received by schools earlier in the week: On Friday, around 30 schools in Delhi received bomb threats via email, prompting a massive search operation across multiple premises. On Monday, at least 44 schools reported receiving similar threat emails. In both instances, the threats were declared hoaxes after extensive searches by police and bomb squads failed to uncover any suspicious items.
