- More than 10 flights were affected on Thursday alone, including services bound for Milan, Rome, Brussels, and Prague, following similar disruptions on Monday and Tuesday.
- No explosive devices have been found on any affected aircraft, with UK authorities labelling the incidents as malicious hoax threats.
