Middle East2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported14m ago
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated that it is currently too early to determine whether Iran was involved in an attack involving a pilot who stabbed a co-pilot and attempted to commandeer a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv. The incident occurred on Wednesday when the Flydubai aircraft plunged more than 17,000 feet, approximately two hours into its journey.
Following the event, Netanyahu reported that the co-pilot responsible for the attack had undergone Islamist radical indoctrination. Meanwhile, authorities in the United Arab Emirates have launched an investigation to explore a potential terror link connected to the dramatic in-flight episode.
