Following significant disruptions at Ben Gurion Airport that left many passengers' luggage behind, the Israel Airports Authority has established a special task force to resolve the issue. The team has been working overnight with airlines and ground service companies including Air Handling, Lufar, and QAS to transfer and deliver the delayed baggage.

Despite the progress, a senior aviation industry official noted that operations have not yet fully returned to normal.
