A total of ten flights operated by IndiGo Airlines received bomb threats on Tuesday. Of these, seven flights were being operated on international routes while three were domestic flights. This comes amid a series of hoax threats issued to several airlines in the last few days.

The tango area is a place where the flight is parked and is a little far from the runway area. The official said that CISF staff started the investigation by cordoning off the flight 100 meters away.

After a flurry of bomb threats issued to Indian carriers throughout the week, over a dozen more flights operated by airlines like IndiGo, Vistara and Akasa Air faced security threats on Sunday.
