A source in the French police announced that the Eiffel Tower in Paris was closed to the public, on Saturday, after it was evacuated as part of precautionary measures, following a "bomb threat".

The security alert led to the evacuation of 3 floors of the tower located in central Paris , the most prominent tourist attraction in France, which attracted 6.2 million visitors last year.

The authority that runs the tower said that bomb disposal experts and police were inspecting the premises, including a restaurant located in the tower.
