Major Disruption Grounds All Flights at Eindhoven Airport

A significant disruption halted all air traffic at Eindhoven Airport in the Netherlands on Wednesday. The Dutch Royal Airforce attributed the halt to IT issues that also affected emergency services. The Defense Ministry reported login and communication troubles, leading to service impacts across the board.

All air traffic was halted at the Netherlands' Eindhoven Airport on Wednesday due to an unspecified 'significant disruption,' the Dutch Royal Airforce stated.

The second-largest airport in the country faced IT issues as reported by the Defense Ministry. Employees encountered login problems, causing telephone numbers to be unreachable and impacting service provision.

Additionally, a national outage disrupted the usual alarm and communication systems of Dutch emergency services, although national emergency numbers remained operational. It remains unclear if these disruptions are connected.
