Just minutes before the tube fell, around 6 pm, a plane with passengers has pulled off from it, but, luckily, the craft was at a safe distance at the time of the accident. There are no reported injuries.

The airport authority has conducted a full check of all tubes. A special commission is going to probe the incident.
