A new wave of bomb threats against schools in Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland and Italy has led to the emergency evacuation of several educational institutions. The Italian authorities announced that about 6,300 schools were affected by these threats. The senders of several threatening emails also identified themselves as being affiliated with the Revolutionary Guards.
Journalist Reza Talbi said that Russia may seek to create a crisis and increase the divide in European societies through cyber groups and networks linked to the Islamic Republic. He emphasized that the scope of the Islamic Republic's possible participation in these operations is still unclear and warned that the spread of threats of this type to Europe could become the basis for a joint response by European countries against the Islamic Republic.
