UAE Attorney General updates Flydubai inquiry
The Emirati Prosecutor General announced that investigations into the incident involving Fly Dubai flight FZ1073, which was en route from Dubai to Tel Aviv on September 30, 2026, have revealed that the Omani co-pilot planned an attack as early as 2017. His goal was to seize control of the aircraft and carry out a suicide operation against the Ben Gurion Airport building in Tel Aviv, aiming to cause significant casualties. During the flight, the accused attacked the pilot with an emergency axe and attempted to execute the attack, but the crew managed to regain control and safely diverted the plane to Tabuk Airport in Saudi Arabia. The 29-year-old suspect had adopted extremist ideas through reading books and supporting terrorist organizations. He had also exploited two previous trips to Tel Aviv to study the airport and its course before executing the plan. The investigations are ongoing to determine if there are other accomplices or connections, and the report confirms that the suspect acted alone.
