Passenger With Lighter Forces Delta Flight to Divert to Salt Lake City Apr 27, 2004 12:12 pm US/Mountain A Delta Airlines flight from Los Angeles to New York was diverted to Salt Lake City after a man produced a butane lighter on board the plane. Delta Flight 1986 was re-routed for security reasons. The plane is on the ground at Salt Lake International. Delta officials say a man on the plane produced a butane lighter that was concealed in an electronic device. They say the man- who was on his way to Prague- was acting “a little odd” and the plane’s crew diverted the aircraft. Security officers are interviewing the man and a second party. They are also searching the plane to ensure that it is safe to continue on to New York. The other passengers were being re-screened so they can board the plane once it clears security. So far there is no indication of any delays at the airport. Stay tuned to 2News for the latest information. http://kutv.com/topstories/local_story_118134514.html ***********************************************************

From the Arabic forums:

BEGINT TRANSLATION

Strong explosions shook the region of Almaza in the Syrian capital Damascus, and the warning sirens in the region wounded, and that according to what was reported on the Iranian world channel. They have reported that the explosions resulted from a booby-trapped car.

News organizations Alf daya and Al Jazeera have confirmed this, and have described a dense firefight in the Syrian capital after the explosions that say that it targeted the British embassy.

There is uncertain news about an attack on the foreign embassies there.

END TRANSLATION

Another report indicates that the British and Saudi embassies have been attacked.

Yet another forum says that that the correspondent of Abozbi channel in Tehran Najah Muhammad Ali claims this is a raid carried out by Zionist aeroplanes on Palestinian sites belonging to Hamas in the Syrian capital Damascus.

I have no clue what is true.
