Two Air France flights bound for Paris from the United States, US, were diverted to Salt Lake City and Halifax, Canada, after the airline received anonymous threats by telephone, following their respective takeoffs, the carrier said.

According to Air France Group yes­terday, there was a "bomb scare" on Flight 55, a Boeing 777-300 aircraft, from Washington, and Flight 65, an Airbus Group SE A380 plane, from Los Angeles. Both planes landed safe­ly and were diverted as a precaution­ary measure to conduct all necessary security checks.

Nerves are on edge following last week's terror attacks in Paris in which no fewer than 129 people were con­firmed killed.

Also on Tuesday, a bomb threat led Germany to cancel a soccer game with the Netherlands that Chancellor Angela Merkel and members of her cabinet had planned to attend.

Founder of Dubai-based Martin Consulting LLC, Mark D. Martin, said in an e-mail: "World aviation is on high alert. Airports need to im­mediately step up screening of all staff entering airports, including contract workers and anyone connected with parked aircraft."

Authorities will lead investigation to identify the source of the telephone call...
