Let's now shift focus and tell you more about the Fly Dubai flight horror.
The Indian pilot, the hero pilot, attacked by his co-pilot aboard that flight.
Now says he could not let the people on board die. That's what he has said.
Now both the US and Israel, remember, are pointing fingers at Iran.
As the UAE says, it is probing it as a terrorist act while heaping praise for the Indian hero pilot.
In fact, his first public remarks after the incident came while speaking to the Indian prime minister,
where he recounted how he fought through his injuries to help prevent a potential disaster.
Remember, he was stabbed allegedly by his co-pilot during that flight, which was carrying 174 people.
Despite his injuries, he managed to open the cockpit door, allowing passengers and crew to enter and subdue the attacker.
Other pilots on board then helped take control of the aircraft, which made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.
In a video call with the Indian prime minister, he said that during those difficult moments, he recited the Hanuman Chalisa.
He said his faith gave him the strength and courage to keep going.
He said he was lying on the floor and was still under attack when he realized that the plane was losing altitude and that he had to act.
It was such a moment when I realized that if I didn't do anything, because I had fallen down.
I was so badly injured that I had fallen down.
At that time, I said that if I didn't get up, I would fly more than 17,000.
I have been a captain for the past 11 years.
Now I know what will happen in the chart even with my eyes closed.
And Prime Minister Modi praised his courage and presence of mind, saying his actions helped save lives.
The whole country is praying for you.
Everyone is chanting Mahamruti Jai.
Your courage, your bravery, and your intelligence.
You made so many decisions in a fraction of a second and saved the lives of so many people.
The whole country can proudly say that we Indians are not people who take lives.
We are people who save lives.
As time passes, the picture becomes clearer.
The attacker had undergone Islamist radicalization.
He intended to crash the plane along with its passengers.
We are investigating whether he was sent and whoever sent him will pay a very heavy price.
The UAE meanwhile is investigating the incident while the co-pilot remains in custody.
The Fly Dubai aircraft carrying 174 people was forced to make that emergency landing in Saudi Arabia
after the captain was attacked allegedly.
He sustained stab injuries while other crew members also suffered injuries.
No passengers were reported to have suffered serious injuries though
and the full circumstances of what happened including the motive
and any possible affiliation of the attacker remain under investigation.
