Hamas's al-Qassem Brigades released previously unpublished photos of former leader Yahya Sinwar before his killing by the Israeli army in Gaza in October 2024, showing him in disguises used during war and other situations; the images were shared on social media by users and local media.

The Houthis claimed drone and missile attacks on Riyadh's international airport and an Aramco refinery in Rabgh, while Yemeni government forces, backed by Saudi Arabia, launched Operation Yemen Dawn, retaking the Bab el-Mandeb Strait and advancing along the Red Sea coast, even as deadlock continues in talks with Iran over the US military presence in the Gulf.
On September 30, Omani co-pilot Hammam Al-Hammami attempted to hijack a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv and crash it into Ben Gurion Airport, claiming he was acting to avenge Gaza. After injuring the pilot with an emergency axe, he was pinned down by passengers and crew members. The plane was diverted and landed in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. UAE authorities are questioning the co-pilot and crew, while the Mossad suspects possible links to organizations hostile to Israel during the terrorist's previous trips.

Turkey and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia's allies through the Mecca Pact, announced they would send military forces to the Kingdom to counter regular attacks by Yemen's Houthi fighters, after an emergency meeting in Riyadh. The joint statement strongly condemns attempts to strike Mecca and Medina and reiterates the commitment to collective security.

The Omani pilot Hammam Al-Hammami told Emirati investigators that he attempted to hijack a FlyDubai flight to avenge Gaza and that he wanted to die as a martyr. This was reported by Channel 12, specifying that the Israeli authorities are verifying whether he acted alone or on the orders of others, while the Shin Bet is participating in the investigation. Investigators have access to the contents of the pilot's phone and are analyzing his travels in countries hostile to Israel. The flight crew were questioned by the Emirates and ruled out of involvement.

Loud explosions have been heard in Riyadh as the Shin Bet chief warns of a possible Hamas attack close to the elections. Meanwhile, diplomatic tension is growing between the United Kingdom and Israel over the closure of the British consulate in Jerusalem.
