The copilot of a Flydubai flight apparently attempted to bring down a plane of almost entirely Israeli passengers.per source text
The serious incident on the Flydubai plane was an attempted jihadist attack, which was thwarted only thanks to the heroism of a number of Israeli passengers who broke into the cockpit, took control of the terrorist and returned control of the plane to another crew of pilots who were present there.per Israel Katz
Nothing even remotely resembling this morning’s aircraft incident came up during the security briefing with the Prime Minister last night, not similar, not reminiscent, not even a hint of it.per Yair Lapid
