At least 14 regional airports in France received bomb warnings this Friday, which forced three to evacuate and caused a third consecutive day of air traffic disruptions when two weeks of school holidays begin. According to airport sources, the airfields of Bordeaux, Beziers, Rennes, Lille, Beauvais, Tarbes, Nantes, Brest, Toulouse, Carcassonne, Lyon-Bron, Pau, Nice and Biarritz received threatening messages and the first three were evacuated.

The Paris airports of Orly and Charles de Gaulle are not affected. France has been at the "attack emergency" alert level for a week, when a radicalized Islamist murdered Dominique Bernard with a knifea French teacher, at his educational center in Arras (north).

Since then, bomb warnings have multiplied in high schools, airports and tourist places, such as the Palace of Versailles. The Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, indicated on Thursday night that 18 people were arrested for these alerts. The Minister of Justice, Éric Dupond-Moretti, specified this Friday that 22 investigations were opened and he criticized "guys" who "have no sense of responsibility."

In Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône, about 27 kilometers northwest of Paris, a 16-year-old student was arrested for a false bomb warning at his school, which had to be evacuated, police sources said. The authorities warned that the penalties for adults for these false bomb warnings could be up to 2 years in prison and a fine of 30,000 euros (31,170 dollars / about 581,000 Mexican pesos).
