An explosion occurred at Miyazaki Airport in Japan, creating a 7-meter-wide and 1-meter-deep hole on the taxiway. The incident, reported around 08:00 local time, prompted authorities to suspend all flights as a precaution. No injuries or fatalities were reported.
Police and fire teams were dispatched to the site, and a detailed investigation is underway. A Japan Self-Defense Forces bomb disposal unit from Saga Prefecture was sent to the airport amid concerns of unexploded World War II ordnance possibly being present on the runway.
