Authorities in the UAE shared with Israel a list of passengers and crew ahead of last week’s FlyDubai flight bound for Tel Aviv after an Omani co-pilot allegedly tried to seize control and crash the aircraft. The new details, including pilots’ names and nationalities, are intensifying questions about how the attacker avoided detection. Officials say the Omani co-pilot had been barred from flying in Oman due to extremist views, but it remains unclear how an Oman citizen was cleared to operate a flight carrying Israeli passengers despite no diplomatic ties between the countries. Investigators are also assessing other reported security gaps.
