The Attorney General of the United Arab Emirates revealed that the terrorist pilot who intended to crash Flydubai flight into Ben Gurion Airport chose the profession inspired by the September 11 attacks on the Twin Towers in the United States, with the intention of carrying out a similar attack. The UAE investigation found that during his studies in Australia in 2017, the terrorist was exposed to extensive extremist materials, including those glorifying terrorism, and prepared himself physically and mentally for an in-flight attack.
