A huge evacuation has taken place in the Czech Republic at major train stations and public buildings after reports of a bomb attack.

Officials say they received an anonymous phone call saying ten bombs were located at the central railway station in Prague and also in locations across the rest of the country.

Officials did not release details of where these locations are. However, evacuations have taken place in the cities of Plzen and Pardubice.

Town halls in Mlada Boleslav and Jicin were also evacuated and the city hall in Prague was also disrupted.

Police also cordoned off the historic square in Pardubice and train stations in a number of cities were evacuated.

Some of the reports suggested the bombs would explode at 12pm local time.

People who were evacuated have now been allowed back into some of the buildings.

Speaking to local media, police chief Marketa Janovska said: “An anonymous person informed us by telephone that there were bombs at the central railway station in Prague and other places across the Czech Republic."

The national police has now launched a major evacuation at various sites.

Officials say if it is a park it could cost the economy tens of thousands of euros.

Pictures show police sealing off buildings with tape.
