There's been scenes of panic at Israel's Ben Gurion airport after an American family tried to make it through security with an unexploded shell in their luggage.
The shell was uncovered by staff at security, prompting mass panic in the terminal building.
The BBC reports the family picked up the explosive on a visit to the Israeli occupied Golan Heights, the site of wars between Israel and Syria - they wanted to keep the ordinance as a souvenir.
The family was interrogated by security staff at the airport, but were then allowed to board their flight.
Footage posted to social media by Israel's Kan public broadcaster shows the chaos in the terminal building after the discovery:
