A pilot was taken into custody after allegedly stabbing a fellow crew member on a commercial flight destined for Israel. The incident occurred while the aircraft was in the air, prompting immediate action by the flight crew and authorities.

According to the investigation, the assailant, who was also a pilot, used a knife to wound the other pilot. After the attack, the suspect is reported to have attempted to bring the aircraft down, though the flight was subsequently brought under control by the remaining crew.

The flight landed safely, and emergency services met the aircraft on arrival. The victim received medical attention for the stabbing injuries, while the suspect was arrested at the airport and handed over to law enforcement for further questioning.

Police and aviation regulators have opened a formal inquiry into the motives behind the attack and the security protocols that allowed a weapon to be brought aboard. Officials have not disclosed the identities of the individuals involved pending the investigation.

The incident has raised concerns about airline safety and the vetting of flight crew members, prompting calls for a review of existing procedures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
