On October 5 local time, Omani co-pilot Hamam Hammami, involved in the cockpit conflict incident aboard a flydubai passenger aircraft, testified during his trial that his motive was "revenge for Gaza." Israeli sources said that during a multinational joint interrogation in the United Arab Emirates, Hammami admitted that his choice to fly the flight bound for Israel and his attempt to crash the passenger plane were a long-premeditated act of retaliation.
