Police in the Netherlands allowed people back into the region surrounding the parliament building in The Hague on Thursday after it was evacuated over a bomb threat.

Police said no threat was found after an investigation. 

 

Journalists on Twitter wrote that they had been told to leave the buildings, where they had been waiting for a news conference about the resumption of talks on forming a government following last week's national elections.
