Real-life hijacking at Malta airport halts hijack film shoot
A film being shot at the Malta airport about a plane hijacking was disrupted amid the real hijacking of a Libyan Airbus A320 on Friday. The movie being shot, 'Entebbe', is based on a hostage situation that occurred about 40 years ago in Uganda. In Friday's incident, two hijackers threatened to blow up the plane with 118 people on board.
