National Security Advisor Shmuel Ben Ezra has decided to appoint retired Major General Moti Baruch to lead a team tasked with thoroughly examining all aspects of foreign civil aviation security into Israel. The decision follows an attempted attack on a Flydubai flight. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had instructed Ben Ezra two days prior to establish a team to review the security arrangements for foreign airlines arriving in Israel. This directive was issued after the attempted attack. Baruch, who was among the founders of Division 96 following the October 7th events and previously headed a team of experts on operational discipline in combat, is expected to investigate the failures and conduct that preceded the attempted attack on the flight. The appointment comes amid ongoing investigations into the Flydubai incident and a broader review of security for foreign airlines operating in Israel.
