Israeli journalist: Flydubai pilot often prayed, avoided women’s handshakes
An incident inside the cockpit of a Fly Dubai flight bound from Dubai to Tel Aviv resulted in the discovery that the suspected pilot was practicing religious rituals such as prayer and refused to shake hands with women. The incident led to the pilot assaulting his colleague and attempting to take control of the aircraft, which caused it to make a sudden emergency descent over Jordanian airspace and triggered distress signals indicating illegal interference. As a result of the incident, Fly Dubai temporarily suspended its flights to and from Israel. Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the event and how the pilot obtained his work permits.
