Woman drinks coffee filled with INSECTS from Majorca airport which leaves her ‘fighting for her life’

Reports from Balearic news outlet Ultima Hora said the woman, works for an airline company and, along with other colleagues, went to a machine to have a coffee on Monday.

However, after noticing an unusual taste to the drink, she looked into the cup and noticed it was swarming with insects.

Shortly after, the woman reportedly went into an anaphylactic shock and collapsed. Her face began to swell and she had difficulty breathing.

After being treated immediately by airport health services who gave her adrenaline and other drugs to stabilise her, she was transferred to a clinic in Palma.

She was then admitted to the Intensive Care Unit where she was only released earlier today.

The incident has been reported to the National Police for a possible crime against public health and reckless injuries.

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS

Her family have now filed a complaint against the airport to the National Police, Ultima Hora reported.

They claim the presence of bugs in the coffee cup is a possible crime against public health and reckless injuries, the news site added.

The family added that the machine, which has now been closed down, was clearly poorly maintained by airport staff.

GB News has approached the airport for a comment.

Earlier this year, Palma, alongside Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas airport and Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat airport announced holidaymakers would not have to remove their liquids and electronics from their hand luggage for scanning.

Dates for the change have not been announced but the new scanners are set to be rolled out in Madrid, Barcelona and Palma in 2024. This is part of a global project to upgrade security filters.

The launch of this project will begin at the airports with the highest volume of passengers.
