Pilot stabbed co-pilot in apparent bid to crash Israel-bound plane
Original: Pilot stabbed his co-pilot in apparent attempt to crash Israel-bound plane, Netanyahu says
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a pilot stabbed his co-pilot aboard a passenger flight bound for Israel in an apparent attempt to bring the plane down. The aircraft did not crash, and Netanyahu cited the incident as he called for strengthened international aviation security measures against terrorism targeting Israeli-linked flights.
Why now: The revelation by Netanyahu that an in-flight attack was an apparent deliberate attempt to down an Israel-bound plane has prompted concern about aviation security.
