The operation allegedly involved a flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Wednesday.
- The flight was diverted to Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia, after a cockpit dispute, and the captain and first officer were injured and taken to hospital. The Saudi National Transportation Safety Committee has opened an investigation into the incident.
