Initial reports suggesting that the pilots involved in the FlyDubai incident were Russian and Ukrainian have been refuted by multiple Israeli media outlets. The correct nationalities are now known to be Omani (the second pilot who attacked) and Emirati (the injured captain). Additional pilots on board, including some from Russia and Ukraine, played a crucial role in stabilizing the plane and ensuring a safe landing.
