At least 20 European passenger flights received bomb threats on Thursday, days after eight planes were grounded because of hoax warnings in what experts say is probably a co-ordinated campaign to disrupt air travel.
又有至少20个欧洲客运航班周四接到炸弹威胁。几天前已有8架飞机因欺骗性威胁而被迫停飞。专家们认为，这很可能是一场蓄意扰乱航空旅行的协调行动。
Police and anti-terror authorities were called to search aircraft in locations including London’s Heathrow and airports in Italy, Poland, France, Austria, Bulgaria, Romania and the Czech Republic, with a handful of services diverted after receiving threats while in mid-air.
警方及反恐单位在接到报警后，已对多个机场进行了搜查，包括伦敦希思罗机场，以及意大利、波兰、法国、奥地利、保加利亚、罗马尼亚和捷克的机场。还有数个航班在飞行途中接到威胁后就近在其他机场备降。
Thursday’s incidents affected airlines including Ryanair, easyJet, Wizz Air, Aer Lingus, Aegean, Finnair and Polish airline Lot. So far, all the threats have been confirmed to be hoaxes, authorities said.
周四的事件波及多家航空公司，包括瑞安航空(Ryanair)、易捷航空(easyJet)、维兹航空(Wizz Air)、爱尔兰航空(Aer Lingus)、爱琴海航空(Aegean)、芬兰航空(Finnair)以及波兰航空(LOT Polish Airlines)。有关部门表示，迄今所有威胁均已被证实为欺骗。
