Passengers at Ben Gurion Airport reported that the arrivals hall was closed for approximately 30 minutes due to a 'security concern', with many people not permitted to exit. 'There's an absurd bottleneck in the customs green lane at Ben Gurion Airport for half an hour now, nobody is getting through,' one passenger told ynet. Another person reported that 'arriving passengers are not being allowed through customs. They brought everyone who had exited back inside and locked the doors.' After about half an hour, the passages were reopened. The Airport Authority has not yet responded.
