Fake bomb warnings – level 1

Fake bomb warnings

10-11-2026 15:00

Many planes in Europe get fake bomb warnings on Friday. The day before, 25 other flights get similar warnings.

One plane from Rome to Lisbon has a bomb warning, but it lands safely. Police check the plane and find nothing. Four more planes get fake warnings. They fly from France. They land safely. Another plane going from Prague to Rome must land in Venice.

Police in Europe are looking for the people who make these phone calls. All planes are safe, but officers are still checking everything to keep people safe when they fly.

Difficult words: bomb warning (a message or call warning that a bomb is somewhere), flight (a journey by plane), safely (in a way which is not risky or harmful).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

Where must the plane traveling from Prague to Rome land?
