UK bans UPS from screening cargo
The government says it has barred parcel company UPS from screening air cargo at some facilities in the UK because of security problems.
The Department for Transport (DfT) has not revealed what the security issues are and did not identify any locations.
A spokesman said the ban would remain until the carrier "has satisfied current security requirements".
UPS said it was "working to address the problems" identified by the DfT and that some deliveries would be delayed.
