Rocket Fire Targets Tel Aviv Airport Just as Air Canada Flight Was Due to Land
An Air Canada flight from Toronto to Tel Aviv, Israel, was forced to circle above Ben Gurion International Airport after reports the airport was targeted by three rockets Friday.
Al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’ military arm, confirmed via Twitter that it had fired three M75 missiles at the airport around 11:45 a.m. local time.
An Israeli military spokesperson confirmed to Al Jazeera that rockets were fired towards the airport from the Gaza Strip.
Air Canada confirmed that flight AC84, originating from Toronto, altered course five miles (8 km) before landing at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion airport Friday morning.
“Our flight AC84 originating from Toronto was advised by Israeli Air Traffic Control (ATC) to perform a standard go-around until airspace conditions could be confirmed as safe for landing,” Air Canada spokesperson Isabelle Arthur told the Star in an email.
“Our pilots altered course following ATC’s instructions and landed 10 minutes later safely, without incident, at 12:07 local. The safety of our passengers and crew is our first priority and we will continue to monitor developments very closely.”
