Flughafen: Nach Gefahrengut-Alarm – Flugverkehr am BER läuft wieder regulär
Eine Frau meldet am Donnerstag einen gefährlichen Stoff. Das Terminal 1 wird zwischenzeitlich geräumt. Über den Gefahrenstoff, der die Evakuierung auslöste, ist noch nichts bekannt.
Berlin's main airport, BER, resumed normal flight operations on Friday morning after a security alert prompted an evacuation of Terminal 1. The alert, caused by a potential hazardous substance, led to the evacuation of all passengers and the temporary shutdown of terminal operations. However, the incident resulted in delays and a few flight cancellations.
The Berlin police later confirmed that a woman at the airport's service point had reported the presence of a dangerous material. Despite the initial alarm, there was no genuine threat to safety throughout the incident. The terminal was reopened by the police around 8:45 PM.
The identity and nature of the substance under investigation have not been disclosed by the police. An official from the Bundespolizei declined to provide further details. The investigation into the cause of the alarm is expected to yield results in the coming days.
