Another anonymous bomb threat has been made to the Chisinau City Hall today. The police carried out checks, as required by the protocol, to find no explosives in the end.

This is the fourth false bomb sent to the Chisinau City Hall this week alone, after two incidents on Wednesday, and another one on Thursday.

According to the Interior Ministry, hoax bomb threats have surged in the last three months, with more than 120 instances recorded in July alone. Apart from the City Hall, frequent targets include the Chisinau Airport and courtrooms. The Ministry has recently proposed toughening penalties for such offenses, with imprisonment terms to rise up to 12 years.
