Air France has agreed to enforce an Israeli order barring pilots and cabin crew of certain nationalities from flights to Israel. The restrictions cover 31 nationalities, including Algerian, Tunisian, Iranian, and Pakistani citizens. The directive targets nationality rather than religion, but effectively excludes Muslim pilots from those countries. The order follows an alleged attempt by an Omani flydubai co-pilot to crash a plane into a terminal at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport.
