- The attack was planned for the final moments before landing.
- An injured Indian pilot's actions prevented the Omani pilot's plan.
- The Omani pilot attacked the other pilot over Jordan, near Israel.
He reportedly attacked the pilot of the plane he was on while it was over Jordan, near Israel's border. His plan was to approach the airport for landing normally and then, in the final seconds when interception would be impossible, to deliberately crash the aircraft into the terminal building. The plot was thwarted due to the "fateful decision" of an injured Indian pilot, who insisted on opening the door at all costs, preventing the Omani pilot from carrying out his plan. The Omani pilot's confession was made during his interrogation.
