The Franco-Swiss airport of Basel-Mulhouse has been evacuated and closed due to a bomb alert, the French police say.

The alert follows several acts of sabotage across France’s high-speed rail network, causing severe delays just hours before the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, but there is no immediate indication that the two incidents are connected.
