Flydubai passengers tend to bloodied men after co-pilot reportedly stabs captain

Passengers on a flydubai flight were seen tending to two men covered in blood, after the pilots reportedly fought while flying from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Wednesday (Sep 30).

At least one of the wounded men on the aircraft floor appears to be wearing a pilot’s uniform.

Tracking data showed Flight FZ1073 rapidly descending nearly 14,000 feet before transmitting emergency signals, including one indicating possible unlawful interference.

The plane made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.

Israeli officials, speaking anonymously, said the country’s current assessment is that the incident was an attempted “terror attack”.
