Passengers of FlyDubai affected by a recent security incident, officially recognized as a hostile act by the Ministry of Defense, must undergo a mandatory application and medical examination process to receive state benefits. The National Insurance Institute (Bituah Leumi) clarified that while the incident's recognition allows civilians to seek disability recognition due to hostile actions, it does not guarantee automatic payments.
To be eligible for state aid, each passenger who suffered physical or psychological harm must independently submit an application and undergo a medical assessment. This procedure, mandated by Israeli law, is not a discretionary decision by Bituah Leumi. The ministry emphasized that every claim will be evaluated individually, considering the nature of the harm and the individual's reaction to the event.
A special medical commission for victims of hostile acts will determine the degree of disability. Those recognized with a disability of 20% or higher will be eligible for a monthly allowance and other state support measures, with the specific amount determined by current legislation. Bituah Leumi also noted that the support framework for victims of hostile acts is based on legislation developed by the Ministry of Defense, which oversees the implementation of these procedures.
