Photo by Luca Bruno / AP Photo ROME — The airport in the northern Italian city of Bergamo suspended flights Tuesday due to a runway incident that local media said was apparently caused by someone running onto the tarmac and getting sucked into an airport engine. The Bergamo Milan airport authority, known as SACBO, said all flights were suspended at the Bergamo-Orio al Serio airport at 10:20 a.m. local time 'due to a problem that occurred on the taxiway.' An investigation was underway. Corriere della Sera newspaper, citing unnamed airport officials, said someone had seemingly run onto the tarmac as a plane was taking off and got sucked into the engine. There was no immediate response to calls placed to the authority's headquarters. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Venetian vows: Bezos, billionaires, and backlash – DW – 06/27/2025

Image: Luca Bruno/AP Photo/picture alliance Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez were in high spirits as they cruised through the waterways on Thursday for the welcome party for their multi-day wedding in the lagoon city. Entire neighborhoods have been cordoned off. Boat traffic on the busy canals has also been restricted. The couple is staying at the luxury hotel "Aman" on the Grand Canal. Image: Luca Bruno/AP/dpa/picture alliance US billionaire Jeff Bezos, founder of online retail giant Amazon, and former TV presenter Sánchez were set to tie the knot on Friday on the island of San Gregorio Maggiore. The small island, covering around 10 hectares, is located in the Venetian Lagoon and is home to a Benedictine monastery, a church, and the Teatro Verde, where the ceremony is expected to take place. Image: Matteo Chinellato/ipa-agency/dpa/picture alliance The police are patrolling the entire city and monitoring the canals with jet skis. Due to the protests that have been going on for days and the possibility of attacks, the highest security measures are in place. The dates and details of the multi-day celebration remained strictly confidential. Image: Pierre Teyssot/Maxppp/picture alliance A few days ago, a large Greenpeace banner caused a stir in St. Mark's Square. The poster, prominently placed on the ground, reads: "If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more tax." For weeks, local and international activists have been protesting against the wedding and have already announced their intention to disrupt the celebrations. Image: Yara Nardi/REUTERS On the Rialto Bridge, protesters unfurl a banner reading "No Space for Bezos." The tech billionaire's lavish wedding brings together several controversial aspects: One of the richest men in the world is celebrating in a city that has become a symbol of mass tourism and the dramatic consequences of climate change in recent years. Image: Manuel Silvestri/REUTERS Tourists pose in front of an art installation by the collective "Konn Artiss," which depicts Jeff Bezos as a mannequin sitting on a toilet made of Amazon boxes. With several provocative installations throughout the city, the artist collective is protesting the mega-wedding in a unique way. Image: Click News/Handout via REUTERS Despite numerous protests, celebrities are everywhere: Even the Kardashian clan is not missing out on the spectacle, attracting attention on a boat on the Grand Canal. A total of around 200 to 250 prominent guests from politics, business, and entertainment were expected, including Microsoft founder Bill Gates, talk show icon Oprah Winfrey, and actor Orlando Bloom. Image: Guglielmo Mangiapane/REUTERS Ivanka Trump, daughter of US President Donald Trump, traveled to the wedding marathon with her husband Jared Kushner and their children. The cost of the opulent celebration is estimated at at least $10 million (€8.5 million). The governor of the Veneto region, Luca Zaia, even spoke of up to €40 to €48 million. Image: Luigi Costantini/AP Photo/picture alliance The coming days are likely to be turbulent for guests and paparazzi alike, as the wedding celebrations are set to last for at least three days. Between June 25 and 28, expect to see numerous impressions of the mega-wedding — as well as further protests. Image: Pierre Teyssot/Maxppp/picture alliance 06/27/2025 June 27, 2025

Maccabi Tel Aviv faces opponent from Cyprus in Champions League qualifying draw

The trophy is displayed on the pitch before the Champions League final soccer match between Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, Saturday, May 31, 2025. (AP Photo/Luca Bruno) NYON, Switzerland (AP) — Israeli soccer club Maccabi Tel Aviv was paired with Pafos of Cyprus in the Champions League second qualifying round draw on Wednesday. Maccabi must travel from its home city — which has been under attack this week from Iranian missiles — to Cyprus for the first-leg game on July 22 or 23, and find a stadium outside Israel for the return game the following week. Advertisement European soccer body UEFA has required Israel's national and club teams to play international competition games in neutral countries for security reasons since October 2023, when the Hamas attacks provoked wider conflict in the region. Maccabi could stay in Cyprus, or return to Hungarian capital Budapest where it hosted a game in the Champions League preliminary round one year ago. Ukrainian champion Dynamo Kyiv was drawn to play either Zalgiris of Lithuania or Hamrun Spartans of Malta, who start in the first qualifying round next month. Last season, Dynamo chose to host Champions League qualifying games in Lublin, Poland. UEFA has set a deadline of Monday for clubs to propose neutral venues for their European competition games. Advertisement Hours before its opening game at the Club World Cup, Salzburg was paired with Brann in a separate sections for teams that did not win their domestic title. The first leg in Norway will be the Austrian club's first competitive game on returning from the United States. In the FIFA club tournament later Wednesday, Salzburg plays Pachuca of Mexico in Cincinnati at 6 p.m. local time. Scottish league runner-up Rangers will host the first leg against Panathinaikos from Greece, and Viktoria Plzen of Czech Republic was paired with Swiss side Servette. Three teams in Wednesday's draw played in the 36-team Champions League opening phase last season, though none advanced to the knockout rounds. Red Star Belgrade was best placed in 29th, Salzburg was 34th and Slovan Bratislava lost all eight games and finished 35th. Advertisement Red Star, the 1991 European champion, is away first against Vikingur of the Faeroe Islands or Lincoln Red Imps from Gibraltar. Slovan hosts the first leg against Virtus of San Marino or Zrinjski Mostar of Bosnia-Herzegovina. Losing teams in the Champions League second qualifying round switch across to the Europa League, in the third qualifying round that is played in August. Games in the first qualifying round are played from July 8-16. Higher-ranked clubs enter the Champions League qualifying program in two subsequent rounds played in August. They include Benfica, Celtic, Club Brugge, Fenerbahce and Feyenoord. ___ AP soccer:
