A FlyDubai flight was forced to land in Saudi Arabia after the copilot allegedly stabbed the captain and attempted to crash the aircraft. The incident involved a sudden loss of approximately 17,000 feet of altitude within one minute, prompting passengers to intervene and regain control of the cockpit. Investigators are currently working to determine the motive behind the copilot's actions.
Following the event, President Donald Trump issued a warning stating that Iran would be hit 'very hard' if it is determined that the country was involved in or behind the attack. The statement links the potential geopolitical implications of the incident to the ongoing investigation into the pilot's conduct.
