A pilot on an Israel-bound flight stabbed another pilot and “apparently tried to crash the plane”, said Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu.
The plane was travelling from Dubai to Tel Aviv when it plummeted 17,000ft (5,200m) in less than two minutes, before being diverted to Saudi Arabia.
One passenger reports “terrible screams throughout the plane” before “three to five guys burst into the cockpit” and subdued an attacker.
