The airport in Kelowna, B.C., says some flights were delayed after its terminal information screens and public address system were hacked, with social media posts showing pro-Hamas messages on the displays.

Other videos depict slogans being played over the airport's public announcement system.

The airport has confirmed the incident on its website, adding that staff successfully removed the unauthorized messaging by a "third party."
