Multiple flights into and out of Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion Airport were listed as delayed on its website on October 9, after a rocket was reported to have landed close by. The airport said it would continue operating, however.

Footage here from Instagram user Sebas Manrique shows the scene as he said a bomb alert was raised.

“We are trapped here, flights are on standby … we can’t get out,” Manrique said.

There were no reports of injuries or damage. Credit: Sebas Manrique via Storyful
