The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has identified the co-pilot suspected in the FlyDubai attack as an Omani national. The UAE claimed that he attacked the captain with a crash axe before trying to seize control of the plane.

The incident occurred just days after fresh violence broke out across Gaza, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, underscoring regional volatility.

In other developments, Israeli strikes in Gaza killed five people, including two from the Palestinian territory's Christian minority. Meanwhile, a fire broke out at an oil facility in Riyadh, with reports suggesting that security was tightened in the area and roads leading to the site were blocked.
