False alarm! Delta Air Lines plane makes emergency landing at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport after upload says 'there was a bomb' in it

A Delta flight from New York to Tel Aviv, Israel, had to evacuate the crew after receiving a bomb threat after landing on the 13th. An inspection later confirmed it was a false alarm.

The New York Post reported that according to the Jerusalem Post, after the flight landed at Ben Gurion Airport, passengers were rushed to the terminal, and investigators immediately launched a search of the aircraft.

Authorities had previously been notified that the plane was carrying explosives, but after conducting a comprehensive search of the Airbus A33 twin-engine airliner, the threat was confirmed to be a false alarm.

A spokesman for the Israel Airports Authority confirmed to the media "Ynet": "The incident has ended, no abnormalities were found at the scene, and operations have returned to normal."

It is unclear how many passengers and crew were on the flight at the time.

The safety alert occurred only about two weeks after Dubai Airline co-pilot Hamam al-Hammami allegedly attacked captain Smit Machchhar and attempted to hijack a flight to Tel Aviv.

The New York Post has contacted Delta Air Lines for comment.
