Four airports across the U.S. and Canada were hacked to display a series of pro-Hamas and anti-Trump messages, causing flights to be delayed. Videos posted by passengers at Harrisburg International Airport in Pennsylvania showed loudspeakers blasting pro-Palestinian messages in Arabic while flight information screens broadcast messages reading “Israel lost the war, Hamas won the war honorably. You are a pig, Donald Trump.” Similar incidents were reported at airports in Windsor, Ontario, and the British Columbian cities of Kelowna and Victoria in Canada, authorities confirmed. “You had to do a double-take and ask yourself if what you were hearing was actually real,” passenger Glen Brown told CNN. “The real question I have is, if they hack the paging system in an international airport, what else are they tunneling into?” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy condemned the attack as “absolutely unacceptable,” and said the FAA is working with Harrisburg airport to “get to the bottom of this hack.”
