The Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) condemns an incident in which rocks were deliberately placed across the runway of the Lethem Aerodrome. The regulator says the act creates a serious and unacceptable safety risk by potentially endangering aircraft operations and the lives of passengers and crew. In a public statement, the GCAA describes the placement as reckless and says it is coordinating with relevant authorities as part of the response. INews Guyana reports that a police investigation is launched, dated May 30, 2026, following the incident. Both outlets present the same core facts: the runway at Lethem Aerodrome is affected, the rocks were placed deliberately, and the GCAA views the incident as a threat to aviation safety. The reports do not provide details on who is responsible, when the rocks were placed, or whether any flights were immediately disrupted, but they indicate that authorities are taking the matter seriously and pursuing an investigation.
