According to NDTV, around 100 schools in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) reported receiving emails containing bomb threats on May 1. After receiving the email, the school administration and parents panicked.
Then on May 6, an email was sent to six schools in Ahmedabad threatening to attack them. An official said that the emails were sent from a server with a Russian IP address.
Last Sunday, similar emails were sent to several addresses, including Delhi Airport and several major hospitals, threatening to attack. It later turned out that they were fake threats.
