Overview
- The claim was made shortly before 3 p.m. local time, triggering immediate activation of airport security protocols.
- Authorities isolated roughly a 100‑metre radius in the preboarding area, evacuated the terminal to an outdoor assembly point, and summoned the GEDEX bomb squad.
- Airport operations paused with no passenger or baggage movement, and an arriving flight from Córdoba held in “posición Zulu” with passengers kept onboard.
- Bomb technicians found no dangerous items after an exhaustive check, and the terminal reopened about 40 minutes later.
- The fiscal prosecutor’s office opened a case to determine potential criminal responsibility and to requisition the woman’s belongings, with PSA sources noting she was traveling with her daughter.
