Maltese schools across Malta and Gozo faced a wave of coordinated bomb threats via email on Monday, prompting evacuations in several locations including Naxxar, Sliema, St Julian's, Pieta, and Ħamrun. Despite the serious nature of the threats, authorities deemed them "not specific" and refrained from closing all schools. The police's cybercrime unit is investigating the origins of the emails, which were sent from a foreign IP address.
