German authorities received a concrete threat of terrorism in Germany. At the airport in Namibia's capital of Windhoek, a suspicious parcel was found in luggage that was headed to Munich, Germany. The suitcase contained a fuse, clock, and wires. The flight was delayed and the 296 passengers and crew were sent back to the terminal while the luggage was inspected. The flight eventually took off without the cargo. German officials are investigating if this was an attempted attack on Munich and have increased security measures, but the situation remains concerning as the frequency of terrorist attacks on international flights has increased in recent months.
