## Summary

Sky received a security threat after RTÉ and other broadcasters reported similar alerts, prompting RTÉ to evacuate staff from its Dublin office. The incidents matter because they affected media organisations in several countries and authorities are assessing the threats.

Sky said it had carried out a security assessment and reported the matter to authorities. RTÉ said the email came from the same group that has claimed responsibility for threats to passenger airlines this week; the sender used the name “Mikhail Andropov”, whose identity has not been verified. No explosives have been found on the targeted planes.
