A Lufthansa Boeing 787‑9 Dreamliner (flight LH752) from Frankfurt to Hyderabad was forced to return mid‑air on Sunday, June 15, 2025, following a bomb threat received while the plane was still outside Indian airspace . Passengers were informed during the flight that the aircraft lacked landing clearance in India after the threat was reported. Lufthansa and local security authorities have confirmed that the decision was made out of an “abundance of caution” to ensure the safety of everyone on board. This triggered a full security response upon the aircraft’s return to Frankfurt, and an investigation is now underway into the credibility of the threat and the protocols followed

Flight LH752 departed Frankfurt but turned back mid-flight.

The cause was a bomb threat that led to a precautionary return.

All passengers and crew are safe, and the flight landed back in Germany without incident.

Investigations by German and Indian aviation authorities are continuing to assess the threat and procedural response.
