The Attorney General of the United Arab Emirates, Dr. Hamad Al Shamsi, revealed findings from the investigation into the attempted attack on a Flydubai flight on September 30. He stated that the Omani co-pilot "executed a terror plot aimed at causing numerous casualties at the Israeli airport." According to Al Shamsi, whose remarks were published in the Emirati newspaper 'The National,' investigators traced the suspect's radicalization back to 2017 when he was studying in Melbourne, Australia. During that period, he was exposed to extremist literature and online content glorifying terrorism, and also formed connections at a mosque he frequented.
