An email reached RTÉ's newsroom at 08:33 on Friday warning that a bomb would go off within 45 minutes, so staff left its Dublin headquarters. Armed gardaí, Irish police, searched the site, and the Irish Independent and NewstalkFM also briefly emptied their offices. Taoiseach Micheál Martin, Ireland's prime minister, said it isn't yet known whether individuals or a coordinated attack are behind it.
