Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered a comprehensive review of the security aspects of all foreign civilian aviation operating in Israel. The directive was issued to the head of the National Security Council, Shmuel Ben Ezra, who is tasked with appointing an inspector to conduct the thorough examination. This decision follows an attempted attack on a Flydubai flight.
During the weekend, Netanyahu stated that the perpetrator had undergone Islamist radicalization and intended to crash the plane with its passengers. He praised the crew members, identifying Yassiv and his colleagues, as "heroes who prevented a disaster on the scale of September 11th." The Prime Minister also indicated that investigations are underway regarding potential external involvement by terrorist elements, emphasizing that "we are now running an investigation: where was he sent from? And whoever sent him will pay a very heavy price."
