FlyDubai flight lands in Saudi Arabia after cockpit altercation, possible stabbing

A FlyDubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia following a fight between pilots. Preliminary reports suggest one pilot stabbed the other. A passenger told i24NEWS: "The entire cockpit was covered in blood. Israeli passengers took control and subdued the attacker." Another said: "There were moments we were sure it was the end." Flightradar data shows a sudden descent of about 4.5 km per minute. One investigation theory is a suicide attempt and intent to crash the plane. Israeli passengers and the second pilot reportedly helped stabilize the situation. Unconfirmed rumors claim the captain is Russian and the co-pilot Ukrainian; the airline has not confirmed this.
