⚠️ TRAVEL UPDATE: With flydubai flights between Dubai and Tel Aviv currently suspended, Emirates will not allow Israel-bound passengers to board flights to Dubai if they were scheduled to connect there onto a flydubai flight to Tel Aviv. For example, a passenger booked from New York to Dubai on Emirates and then Dubai to Tel Aviv on flydubai would be denied boarding in New York, preventing them from becoming stranded in Dubai.

🇮🇱🚨 Israel Wants Flydubai Co-Pilot Extradited After Alleged Mid-Air Attack National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir says Israel should seek the extradition of the Omani flydubai co-pilot accused of stabbing Captain Smit Machchhar and attempting to crash the Tel Aviv-bound flight carrying more than 170 people, most of them Israelis.

🤩🇮🇳🇮🇱* “I COULDN’T LET THEM DIE”: BLEEDING, BADLY WOUNDED AND TRAPPED ON THE FLOOR OF A PLUNGING PLANE, HERO CAPTAIN FORCES HIMSELF BACK UP — AND SAVES A PLANE FULL OF LIVES* He was badly wounded. He was lying on the cockpit floor. The plane was going down. And Captain Smit Machchhar wasn’t thinking about whether he would survive. He was thinking about everyone sitting behind that cockpit door. Speaking publicly for the first time, Machchhar told Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi what went through his mind during those terrifying moments aboard the Tel Aviv-bound Flydubai flight. After being seriously injured, the veteran pilot collapsed to the floor as his co-pilot continued attacking him. For a moment, he wondered whether he would ever get back up. Then something inside him took over. “I realized that if I didn’t get up and act, no one else would.” Machchhar had been flying for 17 years and serving as a captain for 11. He knew his aircraft so well, he said, that he understood what was happening even with his eyes closed. And from that cockpit floor, he knew exactly what had to happen next. The door had to open. Despite his injuries, he somehow summoned enough strength to get up, reach it and give it one final push. “I knew that only one more push was needed to open the door.” It opened. The Israelis outside rushed in, restrained the attacker and did their part to help regain control of the aircraft. One push. One door. And an airplane full of lives suddenly had a fighting chance. But perhaps the most powerful part of Captain Machchhar’s story is what he says was going through his mind as he fought through his injuries: “I knew I couldn’t let the passengers die.” Bleeding on the floor of a falling airplane, unsure whether he would ever stand again, his thoughts were still with everyone else. That is courage. That is sacrifice. That is a hero. 🇮🇳❤️🇮🇱 Stay tuned for JBN’s interview with this heroic captain and go to our LINK IN BIO to donate to his GoFundMe NOW! https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-hero-pilot-recover 🚨 Don’t risk losing us in your feed.

The strike hit a building in western Gaza City, with Palestinian media reporting five people killed, including a young man, a mother and her daughter, and two other women. Al-Amoudi was not listed among those reported killed. The IDF has not yet commented as it continues to assess the results of the strike. Al-Amoudi is believed to be the most senior Hamas political official currently operating in Gaza and has been reported as a leading candidate to succeed Khalil al-Hayya as head of Hamas’s political bureau in the Strip.

💙🇮🇱 WOW - “A Hero for Israel, India and the Entire World”: Netanyahu Invites Flydubai Captain to Light Independence Day Torch Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke Saturday evening with Indian Captain Smit Machchhar, the pilot who helped save the Israel-bound flydubai flight, and invited him to light a torch on Israel’s Independence Day, according to the Prime Minister’s Office. “You are a hero for Israel, India and the entire world. I invite you to light a torch on Israel’s Independence Day,” Netanyahu told him. During the conversation, Netanyahu asked how the ordeal began. Machchhar shared new details about the terrifying moments inside the cockpit, the announcement said. Despite being attacked and seriously wounded by his co-pilot, Machchhar managed to open the cockpit door, allowing passengers and crew to intervene. Two additional pilots aboard the Dubai-to-Tel Aviv flight subsequently landed the aircraft safely in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia.

🇮🇱 Two Palestinian Islamic Jihad commanders were killed in separate Israeli strikes in Gaza City yesterday, according to the IDF. Ahmed Mahmoud Harb Ramlawi, a commander in the rocket unit of Islamic Jihad’s Shejaiya Battalion, was killed in one strike. A separate strike killed Munir Ibrahim Masri, who commanded an Islamic Jihad anti-tank squad. The IDF says both operatives were working to advance attacks against Israeli troops and civilians while attempting to rebuild Islamic Jihad’s capabilities, in what the military described as a “systematic violation of the ceasefire agreement.”

REVEALED: The flydubai captain wounded in the cockpit attack has described how the incident unfolded, saying the co-pilot initially asked if he could pray in the cockpit — a request the captain said did not seem unusual. Around four to five minutes later, the captain said he was suddenly struck repeatedly in the back of the head. His vision became severely blurred, and moments later, he felt the aircraft enter a sharp descent. Despite his injuries, the captain managed to open the cockpit door at one point, but said the co-pilot quickly shut it again. People outside attempted to enter using the cockpit access code, but the co-pilot allegedly refused to grant them access from inside. Lying injured on the cockpit floor, the captain recalled hearing the aircraft rushing downward as passengers screamed. Believing he might not survive, he said he summoned “one last fight,” forced himself back toward the cockpit door, reached the internal twist handle and opened it. That allowed people outside to enter the cockpit and help regain control of the aircraft.

🚨 REVEALED: Newly leaked footage reportedly captures the opening moments of a U.S. missile strike on Iran’s naval base at Konarak on February 28, 2026, during the initial phase of Operation Epic Fury. The video shows explosions erupting across the Iranian Army’s 3rd Naval Base in southeastern Iran as personnel scramble for cover during the surprise attack. In one clip, a serviceman sheltering with others can be heard saying, “We have nowhere to go. Let’s just stay here for now.” Separate footage appears to show a projectile striking the ground near the group, apparently missing its intended target and highlighting the danger faced by personnel sheltering around the base. The footage, recorded during the February 28 attack, was leaked publicly today.

WATCH: Nasrallah and His Successor Together in Rare Footage—Both Eliminated by Israel Within a Week Footage described as previously unseen is circulating of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah alongside his cousin and successor, Hashem Safieddine, marking two years since both were killed in Israeli strikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs. Nasrallah was killed on September 27, 2024, in an Israeli airstrike on Hezbollah’s headquarters in Dahiyeh. Safieddine was targeted in another strike in the same area on the night of October 3, less than a week later; his death was subsequently confirmed by Israel and Hezbollah. Safieddine was more than a relative: he headed Hezbollah’s Executive Council, overseeing much of the terror group’s financial, political and social operations, and had spent years being groomed to replace Nasrallah. Instead, he was killed before he could publicly establish himself as the organization’s new leader.

🇮🇱⚓ NETANYAHU VOWS TO MAKE ISRAEL A WORLD LEADER IN NAVAL WARFARE Israel’s sixth submarine has arrived, but security officials are asking for more submarines, more ships and additional capabilities, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a visit to the Ashdod naval base Sunday alongside Defense Minister Israel Katz. “The maritime arena has effectively become an international battlefield,” Netanyahu said, pointing to the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb. He warned that Israel’s enemies want to threaten its Mediterranean waters, ports and shipping routes. “Of course, we will not let that happen.” Netanyahu and Katz received briefings on the navy’s southern operations and inspected weapons and equipment used for defense and attack. Netanyahu declined to elaborate on some of the additional capabilities security officials are requesting. “In this area too, above and below the surface, I intend for Israel to be one of the world’s leaders in this field of warfare,” he said. “We will also defend Israel from the sea.”

JUST IN: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich agree: Gas prices to drop by half a shekel per liter tonight. Tonight at midnight, the order to reduce the excise tax, signed by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, will go into effect.

JUST IN: The IDF says it killed Hamas Nukhba terrorist Saqr Nabil Musa Qaisi in an airstrike in Khan Younis today. According to the military, Qaisi took part in Hamas’s October 7, 2023 invasion of Israel and later remained involved in planning attacks against Israeli troops and civilians and rebuilding Hamas’s capabilities. The IDF says Qaisi simultaneously served as the director of Deniz Feneri, a Turkish organization that presents itself as a humanitarian aid group. Israeli intelligence alleges the organization maintains ties with senior Hamas figures and elements within Turkey’s leadership. In that position, Qaisi allegedly employed numerous Hamas operatives and helped channel financial support to members of the terror group. The military accused Deniz Feneri and its leadership of exploiting humanitarian activity as cover for fundraising and other support for Hamas. The IDF said Qaisi was targeted after recently working to advance attacks and restore Hamas capabilities in what it described as repeated violations of the ceasefire. It added that precautions were taken to reduce the risk to civilians during the strike.
