India's airlines and airports received 999 hoax bomb threats this year as of 14 November, the country's deputy civil aviation minister told its parliament. This was nearly 10 times more than the threats received in 2023, Mr Murlidhar Mohol said.

Reps. Jim Himes, Joe Courtney and John Larson all reported that their homes were the subject of bomb threats. Police who responded said they found no evidence of a bomb on the lawmakers' properties.
