Chilean airport authorities told the newspaper La Tercerathat its facilities comply with “all international security standards in terms of the design of its infrastructure,” including cameras and detectors.
The airport noted that it was airline personnel’s responsibility to maintain “the correct and safe operation of the infrastructure.”
“We are collecting all the information to determine how this situation occurred, and reinforce safety measures and protocols with the airline operators to prevent it from happening again, beyond the responsibility that parents and caregivers should have for the children,” the statement added.
In 2019, a 2-year-old boy suffered a fractured hand after climbing onto the baggage belt at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.
