Officials have evacuated Terminals 2 and 3 of Paris-Orly Airport (ORY) during the evening of Aug. 25 due to a bomb threat. Preliminary reports indicate that an unidentified individual made the threat in a phone call to the national police at 18:00, claiming a bomb had been placed in the airport’s restrooms. Traffic disruptions are occurring near the airport and in the nearby town of Thiais, with officials recommending travelers to take alternative routes.
Increased security measures, localized transport disruptions, and flight delays are possible over the coming hours. Lingering disruptions extend for several hours after authorities give the all clear as airlines reposition aircraft and work through their passenger backlogs.
