Hamam al-Hammami, a Flydubai co-pilot, attacked captain Smit Machchhar more than two hours into a Dubai-Tel Aviv flight, causing the aircraft to plunge from 34,000 to 16,000 feet before being restrained and diverted to Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Al-Hammami had been removed from Oman Air over extremist views. Investigations into motive and possible terrorist links are ongoing.
