flydubai Israel-bound flight diverts to Saudi Arabia after pilot fight

Original: flydubai

A flydubai flight bound for Israel diverted to Saudi Arabia after a reported fight between the two pilots, the BBC reports. The diversion is notable because Saudi Arabia and Israel have no formal diplomatic relations, and flights between the Gulf and Israel only recently became possible. The aircraft later continued its journey, though details about the pilots and the cause of the altercation remain limited.

Why now: The unusual combination of an Israel-bound flight diverting to Saudi Arabia and an apparent altercation between pilots is drawing broad international attention.
