A passenger on a FlyDubai flight from Dubai to Eilat, Israel filmed himself pleading for help after what appeared to be an attempted hijacking by another passenger who stabbed the captain. The video shows blood dripping down the speaker’s forehead as he reports that they have subdued the attacker and are landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Another passenger shared a follow-up message to his family, confirming the plane had made an emergency landing due to a seriously injured pilot and another involved individual whose condition was unclear. Israeli officials are treating this incident as a terrorism case, with one source suggesting it may have been intended as a 9/11-style attack.

Story summary
On September 30, 2026, a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv signaled multiple emergency alerts while flying over Jordan, leading it to divert to Tabuk Airport in northwestern Saudi Arabia. The Israeli Air Force scrambled fighter jets due to initial fears of a hijacking. However, Israeli officials later reported that the incident was caused by a fight between the pilots and not a security threat. Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's Prime Minister, held emergency consultations regarding the diversion. The plane landed safely with all passengers unharmed; it carried around 150 people, mostly Israelis.
