An El Al flight en route to New York was forced to divert to Paris after one of the pilots experienced a medical emergency. The plane landed in the French capital shortly before the report was filed. The remainder of the flight to New York has been canceled for the time being. Passengers will be transferred to alternative flights to reach their destination, though it remains unclear when all passengers will be able to continue their journey. Due to the timing of the incident close to the Sabbath's onset, religious passengers will likely have to remain in Paris over the weekend and will not be able to board the replacement flight being arranged by El Al to avoid flying on the Sabbath.
