iPad Air charging port has piece of charger stuck inside

My son yanked the charging wire on the ipad while it was charging and somehow the front part of the charger broke and got stuck inside the charging port of the iPad. Now I cannot charge the iPad with another charger till that piece is taken out. Tried with a tweezer but it requires very fine tools i think. What should I do?

iPad Air 2, iPadOS 14

You would be best advised to seek assistance from the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store - who have the necessary tools to extract a broken connector from the Lightning port of your iPad.
