CNN:
FlyDubai flight to Israel diverted after a "violent incident" between pilots, sources say
• A “violent incident” between two pilots caused a FlyDubai aircraft traveling from Dubai to Tel Aviv to divert to Saudi Arabia, sources have told CNN. An Israeli official said the incident was not a hijacking and the plane has now landed.
• The aircraft descended 17,400 feet in just over two minutes at around 1:20 a.m. ET, flight tracking data shows.
• The incident prompted Israel’s prime minister and defense minister to hold a security consultation. Israeli fighter jets were scrambled after the emergency signal was sent, an Israeli military spokesperson told CNN
