to test Israeli aviation security measures, Hebrew media reported Friday, citing Israeli security officials.

The incident started Thursday when a suspicious suitcase was found by Israeli security agents at the airport who turned it over to Belgian federal authorities.

They decided to evacuate two departure halls and a nearby building that was being used as a mass vaccination site, Brussels Airport said.

The bag was apparently found to belong to a passenger on a Qatar Airways flight from Brussels to Doha, which was forced to return to Brussels.

Belgian authorities inspected the bag and found that it did not contain explosives and announced that the incident was a false alarm. Flights resumed after a 90-minute delay.

Israeli security officials told the Ynet news site on Friday, however, that the bag was found to contain bottles of hand sanitizer and the owner, an Iranian woman, was taken off the flight and detained.

The Israeli officials said that given the location of the bag, near the check-in area of an Israel-bound flight, they believed this was a deliberate Iranian operation to test Israeli aviation security measures.

Channel 13 also reported the suspicions.

Ynet’s security analyst Ron Ben-Yishai said that the Iranians have become frustrated in recent years with their inability to stop Israeli operations against their nuclear program and weapons supplies to terror groups, in addition to their failure to respond in any meaningful ways, and are looking for other options at striking back at Israel.
War is a Darwinian exercise. The one who isn’t as good at it loses.
Israeli intelligence officials told Ynet that they were "investigating the incident."

Israeli officials assisted Belgium in ramping up their airport security policy after Islamist jacket wallahs killed 16 people and injured over 150 in the departure hall of Brussels Airport in 2016. The bombings were part of a coordinated assault on the Belgian capital’s transport system.

Investigators later found that the bombers were trying to target Jews and Israelis at the airport.
