Bomb Threats At Dumna And Agra Airports Spark Panic

A wave of panic swept through Dumna Airport in Jabalpur on Sunday after a threatening email claimed the airport would be blown up. The alarming message triggered an emergency response, prompting airport authorities to evacuate the terminal as a precaution. A bomb disposal squad was immediately dispatched to the scene, thoroughly scanning the premises. No explosives were found, bringing relief to both passengers and staff.

Following the incident, the Chief Security Officer of Dumna Airport filed an FIR against an unidentified individual at Kharmaria police station.

Meanwhile, a similar threat email was received at Agra Airport, further heightening tensions. The email, sent from [roadkillandkyokill@atomicmail.io](mailto:roadkillandkyokill@atomicmail.io), claimed explosives were hidden in a backpack and urged authorities to "evacuate the airport immediately". The message took responsibility for the attack in the name of "Roadkill and Kyo".

Agra Airport’s Chief Security Officer, Sukirti Nigam, filed a formal complaint at Shahganj police station.

Security agencies across India have been put on high alert following reports that other airports may have also received similar emails. Investigations are currently underway.
