Original: 'September 11th Is Happening Again': Omani Co-Pilot Accused of Stabbing Captain and Attempting to Crash FlyDubai Jet Carrying 150 Israelis
An Omani co-pilot on a FlyDubai flight has been accused of stabbing the captain and attempting to crash the aircraft, which was carrying roughly 150 Israeli passengers. Reports circulating online quote a passenger saying 'September 11th is happening again' as the incident unfolded. Details about the flight's route, the captain's condition, and the co-pilot's motives remain limited, and authorities have not yet released a full official account.
Why now: The dramatic mid-flight attack and its reported link to Israeli passengers evoke the September 11 attacks, driving alarm and widespread sharing.
