It was an Omani national co-pilot who stabbed his Indian-Emirati captain but was then overpowered by Israeli passengers along with South African and Kiwi backup pilots.

And where did you read that? Is it more trustworthy than the Financial Times?
Like dual citizenship?
Doesn't matter. It was fake news that percolated right around the time the incident was reported.
