UAE Public Prosecution on Dubai Fire: Terror Plot Against Ben Gurion
Emirati investigations reveal that the 29-year-old suspect began his turn towards extremism and terrorism in 2017 while studying in Australia. During that time, he was influenced by extremist ideas and electronic materials glorifying terrorist organizations. He exploited his participation in two previous trips to Tel Aviv to survey the route and the airport, preparing to execute a terrorist plan aimed at seizing control of the aircraft and using it in a suicide operation targeting Benjamin Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, with the goal of causing significant human casualties. On the day of the incident, the suspect attacked the pilot with a hammer inside the cockpit before the crew and passengers managed to overpower him, change the plane's course, and land it at Tabruk Airport in Saudi Arabia. The suspect admitted to acting alone, and investigations are ongoing to determine if there are any accomplices or other connections.
