Israel-bound flight diverted to Saudi Arabia after pilot brawl
Original: fz1073
A flight heading to Israel was diverted to Saudi Arabia after a physical fight broke out between the pilots, an Israeli official said. The unusual incident put a civilian Israeli-linked aircraft on the ground in a country that until recently had no ties with Israel, drawing attention to the rare landing and questions about how the altercation unfolded and who was aboard.
Why now: The bizarre circumstances of pilots brawling and an Israeli plane landing in Saudi Arabia make the story striking and widely shared.
