00:00Well, we've seen that thanks to the amazing bravery, courage and resolve of Captain Smith Machar,
00:08the Indian pilot, that 180 passengers were saved.
00:14He, despite the fact that he was stabbed by his co-pilot, he's been able to open the door of
00:18the cabin,
00:19and that allowed the bravery of others, the passengers, three Israeli passengers that penetrated the cabin,
00:26neutralized the attacker, and then afterwards called both a doctor that took care of Captain Smith
00:33and a crew that came and took over the flight, took the controls of the flight.
00:43There were two pilots, additional pilots, that were sitting with a passenger at the plane.
00:48So thanks to the combination of the actions, the united action of both the captain, the crew members,
00:56and the passengers, this flight was saved.
00:58Yesterday, Prime Minister Netanyahu called the pilot as a hero, also Prime Minister Modi,
01:03called him as a hero, and had he not opened the cockpit, you know, the face of the truck,
01:08he would have been different.
01:09What will you say on the courage of the pilot and also the presence of mind that he had?
01:14Well, I think that he should be praised, and not only our Prime Minister,
01:20but also our President and the head of the Israeli Parliament and the entire people of Israel.
01:25are admiring the fact that Captain Speed Machar used all his experience, his character,
01:36to really do what was needed to do.
01:39Because if he wouldn't have opened the door, the plane could have crashed,
01:44the plane could have penetrated Israel airspace.
01:47We don't know exactly what could have happened at that moment.
01:50And thanks to the combination, this united front against the Assad and the terrorists,
01:57we now have 180 people saved.
02:01Do you also call it as a terror incident?
02:04Because yesterday, Prime Minister Netanyahu met with one of the Israeli passengers who actually saved.
02:09And so do you refer it, and he actually called it as, you know, a voting line 9-11.
02:14Another 9-11 could have happened.
02:15What will you say on that side?
02:17Absolutely. I think that another 9-11 could have happened,
02:21whether this attacker would have been able to take control of the flight.
02:29And thanks to the combination of the action, the activity, the resolve of the Indian pilot
02:37that deserves praise and was praised and will be praised even more,
02:42we now have a different situation.
02:45Yeah. Do we also have any investigation, and is Israel cooperating with the Saudi authorities
02:49or even the UAE and, you know, carrying out the investigation?
02:53Since Abram Accords have been signed, we have more and more communication and cooperation
02:57between intelligence agencies in our region, between security agencies, the civil aviation authorities,
03:03and I'm sure that all the information that is going to come out, both of the investigation
03:08of the attacker, the black box of the plane, all these things are going to be hopefully shared
03:15so we can draw the conclusions, understand what happened, and try to prevent such events in the future.
03:21Yeah. And so what is the status of the passengers that were there?
03:24I believe the flight has already been landed in Tel Aviv. What is the status of the passengers?
03:29Well, the passengers are safe. We had our, you know, health teams delivered to the airport
03:37to make sure that everything, everybody is okay.
03:40We heard the testimonies of the Israelis on the flight,
03:44and I think that everybody now is safe and south.
03:47Are you also going to increase the security of the crew members who are going, you know, to fly during
03:53that?
03:54Well, I'm sure that the professional agencies are going to take another look at the protocols.
04:01Many of these protocols were actually activated as a result of the hijack alert that was sent by the pilot,
04:09and district protocols are going to have to be revised,
04:12so we make sure that not only we can prevent in the future such incidents,
04:18but if they happen, to deal with them as diligently as possible.
04:22Last question, Ambassador.
04:23We are also very close to the October 7th attack when Hamas attacked Israel,
04:27and now we have seen this incident.
04:29Fortunately, there were no casualties. What will you say on that?
04:33Well, this attack happened at a crucial moment, a very sensitive moment in the region,
04:38where in Israel we're going to have elections, where only a few days back Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the UAE
04:45and consulted, according to reports, with leaders of the region.
04:48Each time that you have intensification of cooperation of countries in the region
04:54that are interested in prosperity, in fighting terrorism,
04:57you have terrorists that are trying to challenge that,
05:00like unfortunately happened in the terrible massacre of the 7th of October.
