Israel PM says pilot of rerouted flight tried to crash plane

What the coverage shows

Across the coverage, outlets converge on a cockpit stabbing aboard a Flydubai flight bound for Israel, followed by a diversion and landing in Saudi Arabia, with passengers and crew helping regain control. Many headlines and extracts foreground Netanyahu’s version of events and the “apparent attempt to crash” framing, while Reuters is alone in explicitly saying an Israeli official rejected hijacking. BBC and The Independent lean more on passenger or “hero” angles, and Al Jazeera stands out for presenting a timeline and noting the flight’s reported halt to Israel service.
