Airport suspends flights after ‘threat of attack’ on plane from Iran
Flights have been suspended at Germany’s Hamburg airport this morning after authorities received a threat of an attack against a plane from the Iranian capital Tehran. The airport said that there had been no takeoffs or landings since 12.40pm as police officers conduct a search of the aircraft and its 198 passengers and crew. Federal police said they received an emailed threat on Monday morning of an attack on the Tehran-Hamburg flight and were taking it seriously, though they didn’t give details. The spokesperson described the measures, which included interviewing passengers, as normal procedure when a threat is classified as serious. No takeoffs or landings are possible because the airport fire brigade is involved with the search, the spokesperson added. The Hamburg airport warned that flight delays may ensue due to the measures and did not give an estimate of when they could resume. The incident comes against the backdrop of violence between Israel and Palestine, after Hamas militants launched a suprise attack over the weekend.
