Italy placed over 6,000 schools under alert on Wednesday 11 November 2026 after bomb threat messages prompted evacuations and class suspensions.

Security forces, demining experts and cyber‑crime police inspected the evacuated schools, while authorities said there was no indication of a real danger.

President of the Council Giorgia Meloni said the threats appeared to be a strategy to spread alarm and scheduled a meeting with opposition leaders for 12 November at 9 a.m. in Palazzo Chigi to exchange information and reinforce institutional dialogue on national security.

Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi said it was too early to identify a single responsible party and investigations were ongoing. Defence Minister Guido Crosetto warned that anyone could send an email to a school and that such acts could be part of a strategy or the work of disturbed individuals, not necessarily foreign states.

The messages claimed to be from Mikhaïl Andropov, head of Misoginistan, and threatened genocide against Italians and bomb attacks, but officials found no proof of any real danger.
