- Airport staff in Harrisburg quickly shut the system down, reported no threats to passengers or facilities, and local police began an investigation.
- Kelowna International Airport in British Columbia reported a similar incident, removed the unauthorized content, restored normal flight information, and confirmed that Canadian authorities are investigating.
- News reports say additional Canadian airports, including Victoria and Windsor, displayed related political content on information screens, a detail officials have not comprehensively confirmed.
- No group has claimed responsibility, though one outlet reported an unverified alias of “Cyber Islam,” and the incidents have renewed concerns about vulnerabilities in cloud-based audio and display networks.
