How the global media tried to obscure the attempt to bring down the plane from Dubai

The article claims that major global media outlets tried to downplay the severity of the incident on the 'Fly Dubai' flight, in which the Omani co-pilot is suspected of attempting to crash the plane as an act of terror. According to the article, the global media described the incident as a 'struggle between pilots' or a 'brawl', while ignoring the terror suspicion and the drama experienced by the 174 passengers, including 166 Israelis, who faced a sharp dive and an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.

The article on Channel 14 claims that major global media outlets tried to downplay the severity of the incident on the 'Fly Dubai' flight, in which the co-pilot, described as an 'Omani terrorist', is suspected of attempting to crash the plane as an act of terror on nationalist grounds. According to the article, the global media, including the BBC and the New York Times, initially described the incident in softened terms such as 'struggle between pilots' or 'cockpit confrontation', while ignoring the terror suspicion. The article notes that 174 passengers, including 166 Israelis, experienced a sharp dive and an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. The passengers were later rescued on a special rescue flight to Ben Gurion Airport, where they were greeted with singing and dancing. A 51-year-old man was taken to the hospital in mild condition. The article quotes the New York Times' response, which stated that it 'only publishes verified facts and avoids speculation'.
