An airport terminal in the Yamal-Nenets autonomous district was evacuated and closed after a suspicious bag was found inside.
Rescuers, local police, FSB officers and paramedics arrived on the scene shortly after receiving a call from airport security Wednesday afternoon, Interfax reported, citing the local branch of the Emergency Situations Ministry.
Twenty-four passengers and 26 airport workers were evacuated from the Noyabrsk Airport terminal building, the report said.
The bag was examined and searched by a dog handler and a bomb-sniffing dog, but it turned out to be completely harmless, containing nothing but canned food.
