A bomb threat forces the evacuation of five institutions in Paris

Bomb threats have led to the evacuation of several key institutions in Paris, including Sciences Po and the Montparnasse Tower.

On Friday, several significant buildings in Paris were evacuated due to bomb threats communicated simultaneously via email. This included notable sites such as the Montparnasse Tower and Sciences Po university, both of which underwent security checks following the alerts. While the authorities responded promptly by dispatching teams to secure these locations, it was reported that no suspicious items were found during the evacuations. Other locations mentioned in the threats included the Eiffel Tower and the Bataclan concert hall, though the latter were not evacuated. The situation is still developing as investigators look into the source of the threats and assess whether they are credible.
