Israel's Ministry of Defense has declared that passengers aboard a Flydubai flight will be recognized as victims of hostile acts following an attempted terror incident. The decision, announced on Sunday, came after official confirmation from Israeli investigative authorities and has been forwarded to the National Insurance Institute for further processing.
The Ministry stated that the "approving authority recognized the attempted hijacking as an act of hostility." The incident involved 174 passengers on the Flydubai flight when the Omani pilot, Maam Al-Hamami, allegedly attempted to hijack the plane and crash it at Ben Gurion Airport. The National Insurance Institute is now in contact with the affected passengers.
Nearly two weeks after the event, Flydubai contacted the passengers via email, reportedly without addressing the hijacking attempt or compensation. Investigations revealed that Al-Hamami confessed to intending to crash the plane in Israel. Further reports indicated he had visited Israel twice before and had undergone a radicalization process in Australia. He reportedly chose a career in aviation inspired by the 9/11 attacks.
The bravery of passengers who helped thwart the pilot's actions was also acknowledged by the President's office. President Yitzhak Herzog awarded medals of valor to several passengers, including Yeniv Hayun, Tzvi and Tali Mans, Or Pardilov, Assaf Radwan, and Dr. Shota Musayev. Dr. Musayev also provided life-saving medical treatment to the co-pilot who was injured during the struggle.
