New Delhi: After Delhi and Ahmedabad, at least 10 schools in Kanpur got threatening emails on Wednesday, triggering panic in the city.

The schools have reportedly received the threat through an email that was linked to a Russian server, just like the ones in the case of Delhi in Ahmedabad earlier this month.

The schools have banned the entry of outsiders for the time being, while the police have joined a probe into the matter, India Today reported quoting sources.

Kanpur is the latest to be added to the list of Indian cities that have received bomb threats over the last two weeks, after Delhi, Noida, Jaipur, Lucknow and Ahemedabad among others.
