This is another of the CCTV films of the Glasgow Airport attack shown to the jury trying a former county doctor.

The footage was recorded during a terrorist car bomb attack on Glasgow Airport. It shows dozens of travellers running in terror as a Jeep crashes into a doorway of the main terminal building.

Woolwich Crown Court heard how long queues of passengers were waiting to travel on June 30, 2007, the airport's busiest day of the year.

Jonathan Laidlaw QC said Islamic extremist Kafeel Ahmed, 28, was at the wheel of the improvised car bomb. Ahmed later died of injuries sustained during the attack.

Bilal Abdulla, 29, and former Shropshire doctor Mohammed Asha, 28, are on trial accused of conspiracy to murder and to cause explosions.

The two men deny the offences.

The trial continues.
