Israel Will Get to 'Root' of Cockpit Attack: Netanyahu
Four Israelis will receive the President’s Medal for Civilian Courage after they overpowered an Omani co-pilot and helped prevent a crash, officials said.
- On Wednesday, an Omani co-pilot stabbed Indian Captain Smit Machchhar and attempted to crash a FlyDubai flight carrying over 170 passengers, but crew and passengers intervened, enabling a safe landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia.
- Israeli President Isaac Herzog announced he will recommend four Israelis—Yaniv Hayon, Dr. Shota Mosiyev, Zvika Manes, and Asaf Rajuan—for the Medal for Civilian Courage after they risked their lives to overpower the attacker.
- The accused co-pilot remains in Saudi custody while Israel and the United Arab Emirates conduct a joint investigation; medical teams provided treatment to Captain Machchhar, who suffered serious injuries during the cockpit assault.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cautioned that it is "too early to say" if Iran was involved in the attack, confirming Israel will follow and potentially participate in the investigation into the co-pilot's motives.
- Determining the attacker's connections remains the primary objective as the investigation continues, with Netanyahu stating Israel intends to get to the "root" of the incident to determine if the co-pilot had accomplices or external backing.
