Bomb threat diverts Moscow-bound Aeroflot flight

A Russian Aeroflot flight from New York to Moscow has made an emergency landing in Iceland's Keflavik airport after a bomb threat was received.

Officials said an anonymous call had been made to US law enforcement agencies warning a bomb was inside luggage on board the plane.

Aeroflot spokeswoman Irina Dannenberg said the pilot took the decision to land the plane and it landed safely.
The plane, luggage and passengers are now being investigated, said officials.
At least 200 passengers were on board the flight from John F Kennedy airport in New York to Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport.
A duty officer at Sheremetyevo said it was Aeroflot Flight 103.
