Following a bomb threat at Euroairport Basel-Mulhouse (EAP) early on Sunday morning, the airport was reopened at midday. The terminal had been evacuated in the meantime, as Euroairport announced on its website.
The prefecture of the Haut-Rhin department in Upper Alsace announced on the short message service X that there was no longer any danger to staff or passengers. The security services had given the all-clear.
Flight operations will be gradually resumed, the airport announced. Passengers were asked to contact their airline for information about their flight.
Flight operations were temporarily suspended completely. Access to the airport was also no longer possible from shortly before 06:00.
Last October, a whole series of false bomb threats were made at Euroairport. As a result, the airport had to be temporarily evacuated.
