Last observed 2026-10-18 · Confidence 98%

Canonical event record

What happened

A vehicle apparently breached an airport fence, prompting a police operation and closure of the north runway; airport officials said passenger and cargo traffic remained unrestricted because the second runway was available.

Why it matters: The incident is a security-relevant airport disruption, though dual-runway capacity preserved flight operations.
