Sat May 10 17:11:14 UTC 2025: ## Drone Ban Imposed Near Hyderabad Airport Following Bomb Threat
**Hyderabad, India – May 11, 2025** – Authorities in Hyderabad have implemented a temporary ban on drones, paragliders, and microlight aircraft within a 10-kilometer radius of Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) following an anonymous bomb threat. The ban, issued by both Cyberabad and Hyderabad police commissioners, will remain in effect until at least June 9th.
The decision comes a day after security forces responded to a hoax bomb threat at the airport, prompting thorough searches by the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), local police, and a bomb squad. While the threat proved unfounded, police cited the need to maintain heightened security, even with the recent India-Pakistan ceasefire agreement, as justification for the ban. Any violations will face legal consequences.
