A passenger on a FlyDubai flight heading to Israel from Dubai described the chaos aboard the plane when a co-pilot, according to Israeli officials, may have tried to crash the plane after stabbing the other pilot. "Suddenly the airplane dropped, massive turbulence for 20, 30 seconds, and then balanced, and then once again dropped for ten seconds, and balanced again, and then we saw that, in the front of the aircraft there was a riot," Almog Italie said. After the stabbing incident, passengers held the co-pilot down while another pilot on board landed the plane safely in Saudi Arabia, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. A statement from FlyDubai said only that "an altercation occurred in the flight deck" and that the aircraft "was successfully secured by on-duty FlyDubai crew traveling on the flight, who diverted and landed the aircraft safely." Passengers later boarded another flight to Tel Aviv.
