According to reports, the couple, who held Belgian passports, were attempting to board a Ryanair flight from Tel Aviv to Brussels.

The couple arrived late at Terminal 1 after the check-in counter had closed. Despite this, they attempted to proceed to the security area without a valid ticket for their baby. 

They then unexpectedly refused to purchase a ticket for their infant and decided to abandon the baby at the airport.

This is not the first time parents have abandoned their baby without any regret.

A toddler in Ohio died when her mother left her alone for a 10-day vacation. 

The mom went to Puerto Rico while the child was left in a playpen. The little girl cried for help, but nobody came. 

A neighbor's camera recorded her screams. Tragically, the little girl cried for help, but nobody came. 

When the mother returned home, she found her daughter dead.

The mother pleaded guilty to aggravated murder and child endangerment. 

During the trial, a doctor described the terrible conditions the child endured, including being abandoned and suffering from hunger and thirst. The judge called the mother's actions a complete betrayal. 

She was sentenced to life in prison.
