Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said it is too early to say what was behind the foiled attempt by a co-pilot to crash an Emirati flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv.
He said this on Wednesday when he was asked whether he thinks Iran was involved in the attack.
Netanyahu says the attacker is being investigated in Saudi Arabia, where he was arrested after the plane made an emergency landing.
Recall that the attacker, a pilot stabbed his co-pilot on a flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv and tried to crash the plane which was flying 174 people to Israel.
