   Pro-Palestinian hackers have gained access to the public address systems of   
   American and Canadian airports. They broadcast anti-Trump messages and praised   
   Hamas, among other things.   
       
   This happened at the airports in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Kelowna and   
   Victoria, British Columbia; and Windsor, Ontario, according to local media.   
   The incidents were also shown in videos on social media.   
       
   In addition to anti-Trump messages, there were also critical remarks about   
   Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. In Kelowna, an information screen also   
   displayed messages praising Hamas' Palestinian fighters in Gaza.   
       
   A traveler reported on CNN that airport staff used a megaphone to broadcast   
   information about departing flights, while the loudspeakers blared "Free   
   Palestine.   
       
   Kelowna Airport released a statement on Wednesday: "The cybersecurity incident   
   was limited to a third-party cloud-based software provider. The airport's   
   systems are segregated to prevent cyberattacks from spreading from one network   
   to another."   
       
   The displayed messages were not considered a direct threat to the traveling   
   public. However, delays were reported.
