“The airport has been evacuated. I can’t tell you the exact reason, it’s due to safety requirements,” said the airport employee.
Passengers of the flight arriving from Moscow reported that there were several arriving planes at the airport, and passengers were not allowed off the planes.
The airport information center said that passengers will be able to leave the planes when the safety measures are completed.
A passenger on one of the arriving planes reported that people began to be taken out of the airfield through the side entrances, giving them their luggage in the open air:
“There are about 10 flights that have landed here, and a crowd is gradually building up,” he noted.
The passenger added that, according to airport workers, the reason for the evacuation was a message about mining.
