Two packages containing explosive devices originating in
Yemen and addressed to two places of Jewish worship in
Chicago were intercepted in Dubai and Britain, setting off a
global terror alert, President Obama said at the White House
on Friday.
The president called the packages a "credible threat,"
prompting searches of cargo planes landing at Philadelphia
and Newark and a delivery truck in Brooklyn, and a military
escort for an inbound passenger flight. No explosive packages
were found to have reached the United States.
