Israeli Airline Stocks Soar After Flydubai Incident
Shares of Israeli airlines El Al and Israir experienced significant gains on the stock market following an incident on a Flydubai flight bound for Tel Aviv. The flight was diverted to Saudi Arabia after Israeli passengers were forced to disembark due to an attempted attack on the aircraft. Investors reportedly believe the event may pave the way for Israeli airlines to fully resume flights to the United Arab Emirates. El Al's stock rose by 7.93%, reaching a current value of 1,850 shekels. Israir's stock also saw a notable increase of 8.8%, with its price now at 157 shekels.
