The second call concerned a flight scheduled to depart the U.S. for Israel later that night. The aircraft, already preparing for takeoff, was held pending further security checks by U.S. authorities and clearance from Israeli security officials and the Ministry of Transportation. Earlier on Tuesday, passengers were evacuated from a Delta flight that had landed at TLV after arriving from New York, following an anonymous report of a bomb on board. After a thorough security sweep of the aircraft, which was moved to a remote parking stand, no suspicious findings were discovered, and normal operations resumed. All passengers disembarked safely.
