Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the National Security Advisor, Shmuel Ben Ezra, to examine the security protocols for foreign civilian aviation entering Israel. This directive comes four days after an attempted hijacking of a flight from Dubai. The Prime Minister's office announced the decision on Sunday evening. To date, no entity has claimed responsibility for the security lapse, nor has it been confirmed that the identified breaches have been rectified. It remains unclear if adequate oversight is in place for flight crews arriving in Israel. Investigations suggest that measures are needed to prevent similar future attacks. The Ministry of Transportation, the Shin Bet, and the Mossad have not yet accepted responsibility for failing to review information provided by airlines in real-time, despite having legal access to the data.
