Hundreds of Israeli citizens are stranded in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, unable to return to Israel via direct flights following the suspension of Flydubai services to Ben Gurion Airport. The suspension was enacted after an incident involving a plane the previous day. Flydubai operates approximately 10 flights daily to Israel, and concerns are rising about the increasing number of stranded passengers.
Israel had previously decided to suspend Flydubai flights for six days. This decision impacts not only Israelis in the UAE but also those returning from the Far East who transit through Dubai. Representatives from the Shin Bet security agency are reportedly traveling to Dubai to arrange flights with Israeli airlines to repatriate the stranded citizens. These flights are expected to commence on Friday.
