Car bombing attempt at Manila airport foiled

A Toyota Revo suspected to be loaded with explosives were intercepted by authorities at the parking area of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) terminal 3 in Pasay City, Philippines early Monday.

Radio reports said four still unnamed individuals were arrested by National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) personnel at the Parking B of terminal 3.
 
This prompted airport authorities to place Naia3 under full alert.
 
Chief Superintendent? Christopher Laxa, Philippine National Police Aviation Security Group (PNP ASG), said in a text message to the Inquirer that the police had yet to produce an official report as this was an NBI-led operation.
 
“They (NBI) just informed the security guard at the area after the conduct of their operation,” Laxa said.
