"There was a slight panic as the bees winged across the airport. People could be seen running away to keep cover as the secretary of state swiftly boarded her plane to avoid any stings," an eyewitness told the Nyasa Times.

Scores of both Malawians and Americans scurried in several directions to take cover, the Nyasa Times reported.
