Israel Online — photo status

Passenger Miriam, who was aboard the Flydubai flight, described the terrifying moments: “We heard screams on the plane. Then they opened the cockpit and saw blood. Someone had stabbed the pilot with a pocketknife.” “We prayed ‘Shema Yisrael.’ The Israelis, together with the crew, subdued the attacker. We made an emergency landing. There were moments when we thought we weren’t going to make it out alive.” {.}
