TEHERAN: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is alleged to have planned a "false flag" operation involving an Emirates Arab United (UAE) aircraft in an attempt to draw the United States into a new war with Iran, according to reports from Press TV.

Market Impact

The allegations, based on unnamed regional sources familiar with the developments, claim that a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Wednesday was part of this scheme. The source stated that the operation was discussed and finalized during a secret visit by Netanyahu to the UAE three days prior to the incident. Netanyahu was reportedly accompanied by several senior military and intelligence officials during this trip.

Discussions with officials from several Arab countries focused on framing an operation that could subsequently be linked to Iran.

The stated objective of the alleged plan, according to the Press TV source, was to compel US President Donald Trump to launch another war against Iran. The source also linked the alleged scheme to Netanyahu’s political standing, claiming he was concerned about the prospects of his coalition in upcoming parliamentary elections. Press TV did not disclose the identity of its sources or provide evidence to support the claims in its report.

There were no immediate statements from Israel, the UAE, or the United States regarding the allegations.

The claims emerged one day after Flydubai flight FZ1073, carrying 174 passengers from Dubai to Tel Aviv, made an emergency landing at Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Flydubai stated on Wednesday that a cockpit altercation had occurred, and the crew successfully controlled the situation before the aircraft was diverted safely to Saudi Arabia.

Saudi airport authorities reported that the captain and first officer of the flight were injured and taken to the hospital. All passengers and crew members were reported safe. The Saudi National Transportation Safety Center subsequently opened an investigation into the incident.

Flydubai later announced that flights to and from Israel were suspended temporarily while the investigation was conducted. The airline stated this measure was taken to allow authorities to determine all facts regarding the incident.
