Airport staff told local press that they had simply left their child in the baby stroller by the desk and walked on to passport control.

According to the Israel Airports Authority, the couple had arrived late for their flight to Brussels and seemed anxious to get through airport security – with or without their infant.

A Ryanair spokesperson said: “These passengers travelling from Tel Aviv to Brussels (31 January) presented at check-in without a booking for their infant. They then proceeded to security, leaving the infant behind at check-in.
