‘Dry run’ air terror attack suspected

TWO men suspected of carrying out a dry run for a terrorist attack on an airliner were being questioned by police last night.

The Yemenis were held at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport after security services in the US found what could have been a dummy bomb in one of their suitcases which had been placed on another plane.

Their arrests came amid a period of extra security in the run-up to the ninth anniversary of the September 11 attacks.
