The entire campus of Ireland’s national public service broadcaster RTÉ, located in the Donnybrook district of south Dublin, was fully evacuated on Friday morning after the organization received an emailed bomb threat, local outlets confirmed. All on-site personnel were directed to leave the sprawling broadcast premises immediately as uniformed members of An Garda Síochána, Ireland’s national police service, arrived at the location to launch systematic security sweeps of all buildings on the site. In an official public statement, Garda representatives noted that the reported threat was not isolated to RTÉ, but formed part of a broader wave of threatening communications targeting multiple media outlets across Ireland and wider European jurisdictions. Law enforcement officials confirmed they are currently in active coordination with all affected domestic media groups, and have opened a formal full-scale investigation to trace the origin of the threats, assess their credibility, and identify any individuals or groups linked to the malicious communications. No injuries have been reported at the RTÉ site as of press time, and local traffic management measures have been put in place around the Donnybrook area to accommodate the ongoing police operation.
