Trump bans electronic devices on flights from Muslim countries

Washington (Web Desk): Donald Trump’s administration has barred airline passengers from eight Muslim countries from carrying electronic devices, The Independent reported.

No American carriers are impacted by the ban, which involves any device larger than a mobile phone. The ban would stop passengers bringing laptops, iPads and cameras in carry-on luggage and is thought to effect at least 12 airlines.

It is thought to apply to nonstop flights to the US from 10 airports in eight countries which are believed to include Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. The policy is expected to be announced on Tuesday where the full details of the ban will be disclosed.
