Hebrew · Sole source

Originalרה"מ לגיבורי הטיסה מדובאי: "אנחנו בתקופה מאוד רגישה. יש כוונה של האויבים שלנו לפגוע בנו״ ראש הממשלה בנימין נתניהו אירח היום בלשכתו את הגיבורים יניב חיון, אור פרדילוב, ד״ר שוטה מוסייב ורעייתו סיגלית, שהיו מעורבים באירוע בטיסה מדובאי ומנעו אסון עצום. נתניהו שמע מהם את העדויות על מאמצי ההשתלטות והם שחזרו כי קשרו את הטייס הדוקר באמצעות חוט של אוזניות. לפי עדותם, הטייס אמר "Kill me", דבר המעיד על כך שזיהה כי נכשל במשימתו והעדיף למות. נתניהו אמר לנוכחים כי הפגינו גבורה עילאית, תושייה ואמונה ובכך מנעו אסון כבד והצילו חיים רבים. הוא הוסיף כי אזרחי ישראל צריכים ללמוד מהם, לפקוח עיניים ולגלות ערנות בתקופה רגישה זו, בשל כוונות האויבים לפגוע. נתניהו ציין כי העולם כולו רואה את הגבורה הישראלית והודיע להם כי ישיאו משואה של גבורה אזרחית ביום העצמאות.

The story in 5 lines · by baba

  • Netanyahu honored passengers who stopped a pilot's attack on a Dubai flight.
  • The passengers subdued the pilot using an earphone cord.
  • The pilot reportedly said "Kill me" after being apprehended.
  • Netanyahu called for national vigilance amid perceived enemy threats.
  • The passengers will light a torch on Independence Day.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with passengers who intervened during an incident on a flight from Dubai, preventing a major disaster. The passengers, Yaniv Hayun, Or Pardilov, Dr. Shota Musayev, and his wife Sigalit, recounted how they subdued the pilot, who had apparently stabbed someone. They described tying him up using an earphone cord. According to their testimony, the pilot said "Kill me," suggesting he realized his mission had failed and he preferred to die.

Netanyahu praised the passengers for their "supreme heroism, resourcefulness, and faith," stating they saved many lives. He urged all Israeli citizens to learn from their example, remain vigilant, and keep their eyes open during this "very sensitive period" due to the intentions of "our enemies" to harm Israel. The Prime Minister noted that the world is witnessing "Israeli heroism" and announced that these individuals would light a torch of civil heroism on Independence Day.
