UAE probes possible 'terror' link in attack on flight to Israel

Passengers from an earlier diverted flydubai flight are seen after landing at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport in Lod on September 30, 2026.

The United Arab Emirates announced on Thursday it was probing a possible "terrorist" link to an apparent attack by a pilot on board a flight to Israel that saw passengers reroute the plane to stop it from crashing.
