Israeli Officials Favor Lone Attacker Theory in Flydubai Inquiry
Published
Israeli security officials reportedly regarded a lone attacker seeking to crash the Flydubai plane as the leading explanation on Wednesday evening, September 30. They said there were no clear indications of Iranian direction at that stage, without ruling on the incident's final cause. Saudi authorities were reportedly sharing few investigative details with Israel, while Mossad led a joint team with the Shin Bet. A Shin Bet examination reportedly found no advance warning of this specific incident. The assessment followed the diversion of the Dubai-to-Israel flight to Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, earlier that day.
