On September 30, 2026, an incident occurred in Israel that could have led to a disaster similar to the September 11, 2001 attacks in the USA. A Flydubai plane, en route from the United Arab Emirates to Tel Aviv, became the target of a hijacking attempt.
Details of the Incident
According to information provided by three informed sources to The Telegraph, the co-pilot of the plane attempted to take control in order to direct the aircraft towards a collision with a skyscraper in Tel Aviv. This plan resembles the scenario of the attacks that took place in the USA and has raised significant concerns among Israeli intelligence.
Government Response
Israeli law enforcement agencies are actively investigating this incident, assessing potential security threats. The country's authorities emphasize the importance of enhancing security measures on all flights, especially in light of the international situation and terrorist threats.
Potential Consequences
If the hijacking attempt had been successful, the consequences could have been catastrophic. Israeli intelligence is already working on analyzing the situation to understand how to prevent similar incidents in the future. Among the possible measures are:
- Strengthening security checks at airports.
- Deploying additional security forces on flights.
- Conducting training for flight crews in case of a hijacking attempt.
