- Netanyahu ordered a review of foreign aviation security.

- Key security agencies did not review real-time data.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the head of the National Security Council, Shmuel Ben Ezra, to examine the security protocols for foreign civilian aviation flying to Israel. The directive came four days after an attempted hijacking of a flight from Dubai.
According to the Prime Minister's Office, the decision was made in response to the security lapse concerning the Dubai flight. Notably, the Ministry of Transportation, the Shin Bet, and the Mossad have not yet claimed responsibility for failing to review critical information in real-time. This is despite legislation granting these three bodies access to databases containing information submitted by airlines operating to Israel.
