What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

An ongoing investigation found that a co-pilot aboard a flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv attacked the captain midflight with a crash axe. The co-pilot, who was reportedly already barred from flying by his home country due to extremist views, attempted to take control of the aircraft and crash it into Ben Gurion International Airport. The UAE is leading the main investigation into the incident, which authorities have deemed an attempted terrorist attack.
