A total of 100 bomb warnings have been issued at French airports since October 18, Transport Minister Clement Bonn said today, clarifying that they did not all come from the same email address.
"We're going to file a lawsuit every time, we're not going to let anything pass," Bohn told news station LCI.
"We received a total of 100 warnings at French airports, a little less these last few days, precisely because there is this position of great severity," he clarified.
At the Gare de Lyon train station in Paris, one person was arrested and legal proceedings were opened against him, the minister said, adding that there had also been some attempted cyber attacks.
In addition to the bomb warnings, "we have almost doubled the number of abandoned luggage notices at train stations and airports," the minister added.
France has raised the alert level of the Vigipirate plan against attacks to maximum, following the killing on October 13 of teacher Dominique Bernard at the high school where he taught in Arras (north) by a youth with a dossier on Islamic radicalization.
