French public broadcaster France Info abruptly halted live broadcasts after a bomb threat was made against the channel. During a live program in its Paris studio on Saturday, alarms rang out.
As the alarm went off, Jean-Christophe Galeazzi, the host of a program discussing Ukrainian politics with journalists in the studio, announced that they had to interrupt the broadcast "due to a bomb threat."
And with that, the broadcast was interrupted.
A written statement from France Info said the Paris studio was evacuated as a safety precaution and that police teams launched an investigation at the scene, AA writes.
It was noted that employees returned to the building within about two hours after the investigation was completed.
Two weeks ago, a bomb threat was also made against another French channel, BFMTV.
