Swarm Of Bees Attack Vistara Plane At Kolkata Airport, Delays Two Flights; Video Goes Viral

Two flights were delayed at the Kolkata airport due to an unexpected situation. The weather was not bad, the aircrafts were not late and the planes did not suffer from any technical glitch. Then what held the two planes back? It was a swarm of bees, large enough to cover at least two windows in a row. The incident took place at bay no 25 of the Kolkata airport. The bees could only be removed after the airport staff fired water cannons towards the plane. Insecticides were also sprayed to prevent another attack. Officials, however, did not find a beehive in the vicinity despite conducting an extensive search.
