flydubai Horror: Israeli Envoy Praises Captain Smit Machchhar's "Bravery"
In an exclusive NDTV conversation, Israeli Ambassador to India Reuven Azar says Israeli investigators are in the UAE and cooperating with Emirati authorities in the probe into the FlyDubai cockpit attack. Azar says the incident highlights gaps in aviation security and the need for countries to share intelligence, investigate how existing warnings were handled and adapt vetting protocols. He also credits Captain Smit Machchhar and Israeli passengers with preventing what he says could have been disastrous consequences.
