FlyDubai hijacking claim sparks online debate

Original: “THERE IS A NEW POLICY NOW” So just sit your flight attendant ass in those seats while the Israelis save this aircraft,

Posts are claiming a FlyDubai aircraft was hijacked by a pilot of Omani origin, with comments suggesting Israeli intervention prevented an attack on people on board and on the ground. The accounts also mock flight attendants told to stay seated under a supposed new policy. The claims are unverified, and no official confirmation of a hijacking or of the nationalities involved has been cited.

Why now: unclear
