What the coverage shows
All outlets center the same basic account from Israeli officials: a Flydubai flight to Tel Aviv was diverted after a cockpit confrontation, and Netanyahu said one pilot stabbed the other and appeared to try to crash the plane. Several outlets, including CNN, BBC, AP and the Washington Post, also foreground the rapid descent and emergency landing, while NPR and The Guardian US highlight passengers or crew intervening in the cockpit. France 24 and Channel 4 News are alone among these extracts in explicitly using the “attempted terror attack” framing.
