Around 100 passengers from a flydubai flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv with 174 passengers onboard, diverted after an alleged hijacking attempt, are preparing multi-million-dollar lawsuits.
The lawsuits are reportedly targeting the airline, the Israeli government, and the Israeli and Emirati transport ministries.
