- The child went missing from his parents during check-in for a flight to Larnaca.
- The incident concluded without injuries but is under police investigation.
- The parents are expected to be questioned by authorities upon their return to Israel.
- The Airports Authority is examining how the child accessed the belt unsupervised.
After a brief search, the toddler was found on a luggage conveyor belt, a place authorities stressed no passenger, especially a child, should be. The incident concluded without injuries and is currently under police investigation. The parents are expected to be questioned by authorities upon their return to Israel.
The drama unfolded as the parents realized their son was no longer with them during the check-in process. After failing to locate him, they alerted the police, triggering an airport-wide search. During this time, the child had reportedly wandered away from his parents and climbed onto an unoccupied conveyor belt.
According to the Airports Authority, the toddler remained on the belt for several minutes before being discovered at a baggage sorting area. While he sustained no harm, the fact that a two-year-old could access and remain on a luggage belt unnoticed for a period is the focus of the investigation.
The Airports Authority stated that the toddler was not supervised by his parents, wandered off, and climbed onto an unoccupied baggage conveyor belt. The matter is being handled by the police in conjunction with the parents.
