Heathrow Airport says it can safely begin some flights later today | BBC News

Heathrow Airport, which has been closed all day due to a fire at a substation that knocked out the power to the airport, says it's now "safely able to restart flights".

Counter-terrorism detectives are leading the investigation into the cause of the fire, but say there is "no suggestion at the moment of sabotage or foul play".

The airport now says it hopes to "run a full operation tomorrow and will provide further information shortly".

It also urges passengers not to travel to the airport unless the airline has advised them to do so.
