The electronic attack disrupts the systems, and causes delay in the major European airports

Officials said on Saturday that the electronic attack targeting the registration systems and climbing systems had disrupted air traffic and caused delay in many major airports in Europe.

Brussels Airport stated that the attack means that only manual checkpoints and climb were possible there, and the accident was a “great effect” on the flight schedules.

“There was an electronic attack on Friday night, September 19, against the service provider of the check -in and passenger regulations that affect many European airports, including Brussels Airport,” he said in a statement.

The authorities at Brandenburg Airport in Berlin said that a service provider of passenger handling had been attacked on Friday evening, prompting the airport operators to cut contacts with the systems.

London Heathrow Airport, the most crowded in Europe, said that the “technical issue” affected a service provider for check -in and climbing systems.

“Collins Air Collins, which provides check -in and climbing systems for many airlines across many airports worldwide, suffers from a technical problem that may cause delay in leaving passengers,” Heathrow said in a statement.

The airports advised passengers to check their journey and apologize for any inconvenience.

Collins was formed in 2018, an American Aviation and Defense Technology Company and a subsidiary of RTX Corp. , Which was previously Raytheon Technologies.

Collens provides technology that allows travelers to verify themselves, print passes to climbing and bags, and send their own luggage, all of this from a booth.

Collins said that “online disruption is familiar with the online user system environment program” Select Arabors “, but these handcuffs can still be used.

“We are actively working to solve the problem and restore the full functions of our customers as soon as possible,” he said in a statement. “The impact on customer checkpoints is limited to customer and luggage drop and can be diluted with manual checkpoints.”

There was no effect except in some airports: Rucei, Orly and Towjet airports in the Paris region were not given any turmoil.

It was not the only electronic accident targeting airports. One of the busiest airports in Russia He said on Friday His location was hacked and was in a non -connection mode. Polkovo Airport in Saint Petersburg said that access to its website was restricted, but these operations in the second largest air center in the country were not affected and that specialists were working to restore service.
