🇮🇱🇦🇪 Regev Calls for Flydubai Suspension and Review of Israel-UAE Aviation Deal
- Israel’s Transportation Minister Miri Regev is demanding that flydubai flights to Israel be suspended after an alleged incident aboard a Dubai-to-Tel Aviv flight. Reports say the Omani co-pilot stabbed the captain and attempted to crash the aircraft before passengers intervened. Regev also called for an investigation into whether the UAE violated its aviation agreement with Israel, which restricts pilots to nationals of countries maintaining diplomatic ties with Israel.
