Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned a wave of bomb threats targeting schools, framing them as an attempt to sow fear and chaos, and pledged the state will not yield. Italian authorities are coordinating with European partners to identify perpetrators, though no arrests or specific groups have been named. The incident signals a potential coordinated intimidation campaign against civilian institutions, with implications for domestic security and public order.

A coordinated campaign of mass school bomb threats, primarily via email, has targeted hundreds of schools across Italy, Ireland, the UK (including Scotland and Northern Ireland), and Bulgaria. While authorities largely assess these as hoaxes, the cross-border coordination and scale suggest a deliberate hybrid warfare operation aimed at disruption and psychological impact, with suspected Russian involvement. Attribution remains unconfirmed, but the pattern aligns with broader suspected Russian hybrid warfare incidents across Europe.
