Israel Suspects Terror Attack in Dubai Plane Incident
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Israeli officials suspect a terror attack was behind an incident on a Flydubai plane, where a co-pilot allegedly stabbed the pilot. The attack occurred while the plane was in flight, with crew members outside the cockpit hearing the commotion. They reportedly broke into the cockpit, re-established communication, and regained control of the aircraft.

According to a diplomatic source, indications are strengthening that the perpetrator was a terrorist rather than someone experiencing a mental health crisis. All Israeli passengers on the flight are returning to Israel and are currently being questioned at an undisclosed location, with no one remaining for further investigations there. Israeli forces are present on the ground.

A distress code was activated on the Flydubai flight.
