On a Dubai-Tel Aviv flight, the Omani co-pilot allegedly attacked the captain in the cockpit. Indian captain Smit Machchhar sustained serious injuries but managed to unlock the cockpit door. Passengers intervened and overpowered the co-pilot, ensuring the safety of everyone aboard. The flight was diverted to Saudi Arabia, where all 174 people landed safely. Investigations by authorities from Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Israel are ongoing.
