Credit: Reuters/Ina Fassbender By Tim Castle LONDON | Mon Nov 1, 2010 10:51pm EDT LONDON (Reuters) - Governments tightened aviation security on Monday after two U.S-bound bombs sent in air cargo from Yemen were intercepted in Dubai and Britain. The devices, discovered on Friday, were hidden in printers and would have been powerful enough to destroy the planes carrying them, Britain said. The plot highlighted what appeared to be a loophole in air cargo security after Qatar Airways confirmed the Dubai parcel had been transported on its passenger planes from the Yemeni capital Sanaa via Doha. Britain said it believed the attempt was organized by al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), but said it had no information the organization was planning further attacks. A U.S. official has said Saudi bomb maker Ibrahim Hassan al-Asiri, believed to be working with AQAP, is a key suspect. As a precaution Britain said it was banning air passengers from taking large toner cartridges onto planes as hand luggage, while Nigeria said it would improve the scanning of cargo bound for the United States. Airline security in Africa's most populous country has come under heightened scrutiny after a failed Christmas Day bombing attempt on a U.S. airliner blamed on a Nigerian passenger with explosives concealed in his underwear and claimed by AQAP. The Dutch anti-terrorism agency banned all airborne post and freight from Yemen entering the Netherlands. Germany said it had suspended passenger flights from Yemen, and was considering expanding a cargo flight ban to other unnamed countries. Britain said it was also banning all air freight sent from Somalia, adding to a ban on Yemen cargo flights imposed at the weekend. EXPLOSIVES British Prime Minister David Cameron thanked the police and intelligence operation whose efforts "clearly prevented the terrorists killing and maiming many innocent people whether here or elsewhere in the world." One of the packages was found on a United Parcel Service cargo plane at East Midlands Airport, north of London, on Friday. The other bomb was discovered in a parcel at a FedEx facility in Dubai. The bomb found in Britain was hidden in a Hewlett Packard printer and contained 400 grams of the highly potent explosive pentaerythritol trinitrate (PETN), with the Dubai package holding 300 grams, a German government source said. The Christmas Day attack also used PETN. British authorities intervened after a tip-off from Saudi intelligence was passed on by German authorities, the German source added. The BBC, citing unidentified British officials, said the information came from an al Qaeda member who turned himself into Saudi authorities. 1 2 3 Next World Aerospace & Defense Comments See All Comments (1) | Post Comment Nov 02, 2010 2:02am EDT I cannot believe a terrorist bomb expert would go through so much trouble to smuggle a device onto a plane and NOT set it off. It was aboard planes, at any point it would have a catastrophic effect to have it detonate. No way would ANY terrorist put explosives on a plane and not have it ‘try’ to go off. Our ‘experts’ can’t figure out how it was supposed to detonate. This is an impossible thing to say. They do NOT know how bombs work? Terrorist DO know how the make road side bombs, they do not put them in the roads for a test run. Why even say it was put together by a bomb expert? Why call it a sophisticated bomb, but doesn’t go off? I can’t believe this is all coming from the best in our country. daniwitz13 Report As Abusive See All Comments (1) Add a Comment *We welcome comments that advance the story directly or with relevant tangential information.
