On April 21, in connection with the reports spread on social networks, in particular the Internet application Telegram, regarding explosive devices and expected attacks in educational institutions and shopping centers throughout Tbilisi, the counter-terrorist units of the State Security Service carried out relevant actions throughout the night – reads the statement of the State Security Service.
“No explosive substance or device was found,” the statement emphasizes.
Despite that, many of Tbilisi’s parents chose to keep their children home from school today, even if their children’s school was not among those listed.
The Telegram channel from which the threats about terrorism were spread has been closed.
A similar false message was spread in Adjara a few months ago, which resulted in a large-scale interruption of the educational process.
The Russian-language bomb threat released yesterday.
