- Another bomb threat to Thuringian schools

Eleven schools in Thuringia received threatening emails again at the start of the week. Six of these schools were in Weimar and received identical bomb threats via a mailing list, according to initial police reports. While the police do not consider these threats serious, evacuations were carried out in some cases as a precaution. Further details were not immediately available, and it is not yet known when or how the school operations will resume. Investigations are ongoing.

The principal of one of the Weimar schools reported receiving the same threatening mail as the others, causing a sense of unity and concern among staff members. The police are actively looking into the source of the threatening mail to prevent any potential future incidents.
