ANKARA: Belgium's second-largest airport is being evacuated due to a suspicious package, local media reported on Friday evening. The discovery of a suspicious bag around 6 p.m. local time (1600GMT) at Charleroi Airport, located in the southern part of the capital Brussels, prompted the evacuation of Terminal 1 and halted ground operations, according to local TV channel RTBF. The bomb squad was called to the scene, the reports said. The bag raised concerns after a dog reacted to it, triggering standard security procedures. These included isolating the bag, suspending ground operations, and evacuating passengers. By 7 p.m. (1700GMT), several hundred to several thousand passengers were waiting outside the terminal and adjacent parking lots. An airport spokesperson said the bomb squad will decide on subsequent steps, the channel added. Source: Anadolu Agency
