Co-pilot stabs pilot, tries to crash passenger jet en route to Israel, Netanyahu says
A flight to Tel Aviv diverted to Saudi Arabia following a reported feud between the pilots. The incident prompted the Israeli Air Force to scramble jets due to initial concerns of a potential hijacking.
Israeli officials say passengers helped thwart an "attempted jihadist terror attack" by a FlyDubai pilot who allegedly stabbed his fellow cockpit crew member, intent on crashing the plane.
