🔍 Heathrow Drama: Terminal 4 Evacuated! ✈️
Yesterday, Heathrow Airport faced some unexpected turmoil when Terminal 4 was evacuated amid fears of a hazardous material incident. The scene was buzzing as emergency services, including the Met Police and London Fire Brigade, rushed to the spot, ensuring safety and conducting a thorough search of the area.
👩⚕️ Around 20 people reported injuries, but thankfully, nothing serious was detected. A swift response from the London Ambulance Service saw 21 individuals treated on-site, with only one taken to hospital for further checks.
No dangerous substances were found, and by late evening, the all-clear was given. The terminal was safe to reopen, and Heathrow assured passengers that they were doing everything possible to keep flights on schedule.
In the early hours of operation, footage showed passengers waiting outside, some wrapped in metallic blankets to keep warm. Despite the initial panic, operations continued with minimal disruption.
Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander was staying updated with the situation, as authorities worked tirelessly to resolve the issue. As investigations continue, Heathrow remains vigilant but open and operational.
Glad to see that everyone was safe and sound! 💪 Keep calm and carry on flying, folks! 🌟✈️
