🇫🇷‼️ | BREAKING — France erupts again, this time from its high schools: secondary students are blocking hundreds of schools across the country to demand more teachers, more resources, and an end to classrooms of up to 35 students. On Tuesday alone, there were 440 arrests, mostly minors, and 48 police officers injured; the Interior Minister compared the protests, backed by the radical left of La France Insoumise, to urban violence. They're already calling for more blockades this Thursday. https://x.com/uhn_plus/status/2105281555581030881?s=46&t=gT6uLhaVod8uwzT4p6povA

Flydubai Flight FZ1073 should be understood as more than a frightening cockpit incident. An Israel-bound commercial airliner carrying roughly 180 people experienced a violent confrontation inside the cockpit, transmitted both general-emergency and unlawful-interference codes, plunged thousands of feet in seconds, and ultimately diverted to Tabuk, Saudi Arabia after passengers and crew helped subdue the alleged attacker. Israeli officials subsequently described the incident as an apparent attempt to crash the aircraft, while the investigation into motive and possible organizational connections remains ongoing. What makes FZ1073 strategically significant is the insider-access problem. If the developing account is confirmed, the suspected attacker did not need to defeat airport screening, breach a reinforced cockpit door, or overpower an entire cabin crew before reaching the controls. He was already inside the cockpit, already trusted with the aircraft, and already possessed the technical knowledge required to turn a civilian airliner into a potential weapon. That is the security lesson that should matter going forward: modern aviation defenses are extraordinarily strong against an attacker trying to break in from the outside, but a trusted insider can begin the attack from inside the most protected layer of the system. The outcome also matters. The aircraft landed safely because the unfolding attack did not go uncontested. Passengers and crew intervened, the suspected attacker was restrained, emergency procedures were activated, Israeli fighters responded to the potential hijacking, and Saudi authorities received the aircraft at Tabuk. The immediate disaster appears to have been prevented; the larger task now is to determine how this happened, whether the alleged attacker acted alone or was inspired or directed by others, and what changes are necessary to prevent another trusted aviation professional from ever gaining the opportunity to do the same thing again.

"He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep." (Psalms 121:4) A pilot allegedly stabbed his captain at 34,000 feet, and Israelis were the ones who stopped him. Flydubai flight FZ1073, a Boeing 737 carrying roughly 174 passengers, including 27 children, left Dubai for Tel Aviv. About 90 minutes in, it transmitted squawk code 7700, a general emergency, then 7500, the signal for unlawful interference. The plane dropped sharply, with reports of a descent of well over 10,000 feet in minutes, before diverting to Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Israel scrambled fighter jets. Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Katz convened urgent consultations, and Netanyahu's office later said the situation was "under control." Israel's current assessment is an attempted terror attack. Passengers say the first officer allegedly stabbed the captain and tried to take control of the aircraft. Several Israeli passengers, some with military backgrounds, forced their way in, restrained the attacker and helped the crew regain control. An Israeli passenger on board reportedly treated the wounded pilot, and one passenger said the pilot "tried to kill himself together with us." All passengers are safe, and a replacement aircraft is being sent to bring them home. Investigators in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Israel are examining flight recorders and passenger statements, and one report says a second Dubai-Tel Aviv flight also turned back. Until the investigation speaks, everything above about the attacker's intent is an allegation. But even now, the story tells us three things. First, look at who saved the day. Israelis on that plane heard screaming, understood what it meant, and moved. That instinct, forged by decades of learning that nobody else will save you, is the reason the Jewish people are still here. Those passengers deserve our gratitude, and they deserve to have their story told. Second, look at how the state responded. Fighter jets within minutes, leaders in the room, police preparing for every scenario. That is what taking a threat seriously looks like. Third, look at what was being targeted. That flight was possible because of the Abraham Accords. A direct route between Dubai and Tel Aviv is proof that Jews and Arabs can build ordinary life together, and every family aboard was living that proof. If this proves to be a deliberate attack, it was aimed at normalization itself, at the idea that Israelis can travel, trade and belong in the region. Those who fear that idea will try to break it, by violence or by intimidation.
