Title: EuroAirport closed due to safety concerns Post by: broadgage on July 26, 2024, 11:03:08 This is a major airport, jointly operated by France and Switzerland.
I suspect that this may be related to the attacks on the French railway network. Source is BBC news reports. Title: Re: EuroAirport closed due to safety concerns Post by: broadgage on July 26, 2024, 11:08:33 EuroAirport evacuated due to 'safety reasons' as flights grounded
published at 10:54 10:54 Some news just coming to us from elsewhere on the continent - EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg has temporary grounded flights due to "safety reasons". The airport is located in France and is operated jointly by France and Switzerland. A post on social media says the terminal has been evacuated and closed. We have no indication whether this is linked to the rail disruption in France, but we will bring you more details as we get them. Quoted from BBC website. As I don't think that a link will work as this story is "buried" in the extensive reports about the railway attacks.
