The airport in Strasbourg was evacuated due to a suspicious suitcase, and several Romanian MEPs were left stranded.

The airport in Strasbourg was the scene of a security alert due to a suspicious suitcase, which led to the blocking of several Romanian Members of the European Parliament, including Maria Grapini, Vasile Dîncu, Dan Barna, Vlad Voiculescu, Claudiu Târziu, Diana Șoșoacă, and Șerban Sturdza, on the plane. They were informed by the pilot that they could not disembark due to a bomb alert.

Maria Grapini stated that they were informed that the situation is serious and that security teams need to check the suspicious suitcase before they can leave. The alert was triggered after the suitcase was identified, and anti-terrorism teams intervened on site. Passengers have been waiting for about an hour on the plane, and the flight, operated by TAROM, was supposed to continue to Brussels.
