HAMBURG, Oct 9, 2023 (AFP) – Germany’s Hamburg airport said it had resumed service about 90 minutes after halting traffic following a threat against an Iranian flight Monday.

“Flight service has resumed,” the airport said on its website after earlier stopping all takeoffs and landings over the threat received by email. “There may still be flight delays.”
