The threat of explosions of electronic devices combined with explosives is known to the Commission, the Member States and EU airport authorities.
The Commission has no information that the existing security measures in the Union airports would not allow detecting such devices. Nevertheless, it is important to remain alert.
The Commission is working with Member States and airports on actions to further raise the security at all EU airports, against all threats, including electronic devices with explosives. It is also engaged in dialogue with its international partners on these matters.
