Due to the remnants of war from WWII found during the maintenance works to the aircraft aprons, Ciampino Airport, following the instructions from the Italian Civil Aviation Authority (ENAC), has been temporarily closed to allow the bomb disposal teams to remove the objects safely
I’d like to know what’s going on at Rome Ciampino airport. We were told to go back to the airport due to a runway inspection but it seems everyone has been asked to leave the actual buildingpic.twitter.com/4mXg9mMCOG

They found WWII bombs near the grounds, so until they don't retrieve them, the airport must be closed.
