Bluetooth device was named "bomb" , back to Newark it is

A flight out of Newark had to return to the airport because a passenger named a Bluetooth device 'Bomb.'

In a video, one of the crewmembers was overheard making an announcement saying,

"We have one passenger that seems to be making a funny joke that isn't so funny and it's going to be compromising the safety of this flight."

Other passengers say the crew repeatedly asked everyone to turn off their devices.

The flight was headed to Spain. It turned around about an hour into the trip.

The pilot said the passenger would be arrested.

Spanish police strikes down Pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Bilbao airport

Video showed ​police striking people with batons and pinning others to the ground ⁠while being jeered by onlookers. Before this, activists appeared to have blocked the ​exit for other passengers and police tried to move them.

The Basque regional police ​force said in a statement on Sunday it had launched an investigation to determine if officers complied with procedures. Reuters has reached out to the Spanish government for comment.

On Sunday's march, ​pro-Palestinian demonstrators carried banners criticising the Basque police force and accusing the ​local government of being complicit with Zionism.

The activists were released from Israeli custody after being detained ‌on ⁠a flotilla trying to bring aid to Gaza. Organisers alleged on Friday that the activists were subjected to abuse while in Israeli detention, with several hospitalised with injuries and at least 15 reporting sexual assaults, including rape.

Israel's prison service denied the ​allegations, and Reuters ​was not able ⁠to verify the activists' claims independently.

Spain was among a series of Western governments on Thursday which expressed their anger after Israeli ​minister Itamar Ben-Gvir posted a video of himself mocking the ​activists as ⁠they were pinned to the ground in a prison.

Francesca Albanese, a UN expert on the Palestinian territories, has called for those responsible for events at Bilbao airport ⁠to be ​held responsible, while Amnesty International has demanded a ​thorough investigation.

The Israeli Embassy in Spain has demanded an "explanation" from the Spanish government over the events ​at Bilbao airport.
