As a precautionary measure, schools in Cyprus have been evacuated to allow bomb squads and sniffer dogs to investigate.
A threatening email was sent today shortly after 7:00 am to approximately 30 schools in Cyprus.
The senders warned that they placed bombs on the school grounds, stating that they would spill blood so that Islam could prevail. The message is written in Greek and has the sending address dolofonia@juastdefinition.com.
The threatening email:
“There is a bomb in the schoolyard. With swords raised, we will make you run. We claim your lives because the rule of Allah is our decree.
“Harsh is the wind that whispers in your ear of the death that awaits you. We will sow terror on your shore, as the brothers did in Sri Lanka. Until we reach our appointed star, our hearts will burn with the light of Islamic law.
“We will fill the skies with fire and pray. On the day the infidels pay. We will conquer every inch of European land.
“Whoever doubts this, we will kill. The blood of children will drink the desert sand. Their screams will rise to the sky. Your world will collapse in our hands In the end, only Islam will prevail.”
The Cyprus Police have set up a crisis management centre and launched an investigation into the bomb threats. Schools have been evacuated as a precaution to allow bomb squads and sniffer dogs to search.
