UAE Labels FlyDubai Cockpit Attack a Terrorist Act
✈️ DUBAI — "Terrorist attack" is the UAE's word, not just a security incident. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Abu Dhabi's official terrorism designation transforms Muscat's problem: an Omani national, on an Israel-bound flight, now formally classified as a terrorist act by UAE authorities. Oman's back-channel mediation role with Tehran becomes untenable if Muscat cannot distance itself credibly. Expect Israeli and US pressure on both Dubai and Muscat to produce intelligence on the attacker's network immediately.
