These batteries can overheat and cause fire in extreme cases.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1070\" data-end=\"1192\">Power banks are commonly used for charging mobile phones. However, safety concerns have increased due to past incidents.<\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"1q56dfq\" data-start=\"1194\" data-end=\"1228\">Previous actions by airlines<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1230\" data-end=\"1430\">Before this global step, some airlines had already applied similar restrictions.
