The Omani co-pilot of the Flydubai flight bound for Tel Aviv - who at the end of September had attacked the pilot, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia - was planning a suicide attack on Ben Gurion airport. The United Arab Emirates prosecutor said this on Friday.

The man was inspired by the September 11 attacks and "claimed to have acted alone, without the involvement of other people", the UAE Attorney General Hamad Saif Al Shamsi said in a statement, adding that the investigations are continuing "to verify this claim".

Open Questions

  • ?Did the co-pilot have accomplices?
  • ?What evidence links the man to the ideology of 9/11?
