Story summary
On September 30, a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv signaled multiple emergency codes during its journey, leading to speculation of potential hijacking. The plane was initially seen turning around over Jordan before landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held emergency consultations as the Israeli Air Force scrambled fighter jets due to concerns about a possible hijack. However, security officials later revealed that the incident stemmed from a physical altercation between the two pilots and not a hijacking attempt. The plane safely landed with all passengers reported safe; it carried around 150 people, predominantly Israelis.
