Bomb threats shake up Hyderabad airport, but all flights safe

India Dec 06, 2025

Hyderabad's Rajiv Gandhi International Airport had a tense 12 hours after three separate flights received bomb threats.
First up was an Air India flight from Delhi on December 5—everyone landed safely and nothing suspicious was found.

More flights targeted, security steps up

Early the next morning, a British Airways flight from Heathrow also received a threat but landed without trouble; it turned out to be a hoax.
A Kuwait Airways plane chose to head back to Kuwait after getting a similar warning.
With these back-to-back scares, airport security has been tightened and investigators are working with police and CISF to track down whoever sent the threatening emails using VPNs.
