Israeli intelligence agencies, Mossad and Shin Bet, reportedly received information about the crew of Flydubai flight FZ1073 prior to its departure but did not conduct a thorough check of the provided list. According to the Telegram channel "Voice of Israel," both agencies routinely receive passenger and crew manifests for all flights bound for Israel before they take off, a procedure mandated by Israeli law. However, the presence of this data does not guarantee a full vetting process for every list. In the case of flight FZ1073, details about the crew were available to the intelligence services in advance, but it is claimed that no additional verification was carried out. Previously, "Cursor" reported on the account of Assaf Rajwan, a passenger who assisted in subduing an attacker on the Flydubai flight, detailing his experience.
