LH B747 diverts into LCA after bomb-threat

A Lufthansa B747-400 (LH686) on the way from Frankfurt to Tel Aviv was diverted into Larnaca airport because somebody called Lufthansa and told a story about a bomb aboard. Two IAF F-16 are said to have escorted it.

wasnt it forced to divert to LCA. Lufthansa wanted to keep flying as the German Authorities said it was a hoax ad no code words etc were used. It was just Israel who didnt want it anywhere near them and forced a diversion. Nothing was found at Larnaca.

It is really a sad thing when people are doing this (hope they catch some of the people doing this )
thankfully up to now nothing has happened
better to be safe than sorry
but it must really cause terrible delays and inconvinence
