Two Delta Air Lines regional jets were involved in a low-speed collision on the taxiway at LaGuardia Airport, according to ABC News. The incident occurred during taxiing on a Wednesday evening, with airline officials confirming that one flight attendant was injured as a result of the incident. The material does not provide details on the aircraft types, the exact location on the airfield, or any other casualties beyond the mentioned injury.

Additional reporting from Malay Mail clarifies that the related event involved a security-focused wave of bomb threats targeting European commercial flights, prompting precautionary checks and evacuations across several countries. The reports name European carriers including LOT Polish Airlines, Scandinavian Airlines, Ryanair, and El Al, and note incidents in multiple countries such as Poland, Spain, Italy, and Bulgaria, although these details are part of broader coverage rather than the LaGuardia collision itself.
