A Delta Airlines flight arriving from the United States at Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) was moved to a side runway on Tuesday morning for a thorough security inspection following an anonymous report of a bomb on board. Airport authorities confirmed that security personnel conducted a detailed scan of the aircraft. The incident concluded without any injuries or disruptions to airport operations.
The security alert occurs amid heightened tensions in aviation security. Just the previous day, a cargo plane belonging to Ethiopian Airlines, en route from Addis Ababa to Israel, was denied entry after it was discovered that an Indonesian crew member was aboard, and Indonesia does not have diplomatic relations with Israel. Another significant incident that raised security levels was the "Flydubai" event during the Sukkot holiday, where a pilot from Oman attempted to crash the plane with its passengers into Ben Gurion Airport but was thwarted at the last moment by Israeli passengers who prevented the disaster.
