Israeli Security Agents Join Probe into Flydubai Pilot's Attack Attempt

During questioning, the pilot reportedly confessed to acting out of revenge for Gaza, stating he wished to die as a martyr. Military censorship has permitted the disclosure that Shin Bet agents are now participating in the investigation alongside authorities in the Emirates and Saudi Arabia, who are meticulously examining the contents of the pilot's mobile phone. At a cabinet meeting, a Mossad representative shared new findings, indicating the pilot had visited countries hostile to Israel in recent years. The Mossad is investigating whether he was activated or recruited by any organization during these brief visits. Authorities in the Emirates also questioned the flight's cabin crew, who denied any involvement in the plot. While the crew was reportedly confused, they did not assist the pilot. Israeli teams are not permitted to participate in the questioning of the crew by the Emiratis.
