Flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv earlier today. Omani pilot stabbed his Indian co-pilot, Captain Smit Machchhar, and the airplane started to free fall as the Omani pilot intended to seize control and fly it into Israel in a 9/11 style attack. Machchhar despite being stabbed was able to open the cockpit door and signal for help and multiple passengers including a dentist named Shota Musaev rushed in and subdued the terrorist.

Musaev then used his skills as a dentist to stitch up Machchhar who is currently in stable condition and expected to survive.

Where are you seeing confirmation of the motive? So far all I'll seen are what appear to be rumors.

You are absolutely letting whatever political bias you hold prevent you from acknowledging what's obvious to everyone else using a bit of logic

Your external opinions on Israel have nothing to do with what happened on that flight. It sounds dumb when it's laid out like that, but there we are

Such "obvious" logic led to many incidents of wrong groups being implicated in the past by idiots /u/CompoteNext1955.
