“当时感觉像是遇到了严重的湍流，但实际上并没有湍流，”乘客阿尔莫格·伊塔利（Almog Italie）告诉法新社（AFP），他形容这种在几秒钟内高度骤降的感觉就像在乘坐过山车一样。
It was like “we were having very big turbulence, but there was no turbulence”, passenger Almog Italie told AFP, describing the sensation of losing thousands of feet of altitude in seconds as similar to riding a “rollercoaster”.
根据Flightradar网站的数据，飞机在格林尼治标准时间05:21时从约10,360米的高度突然下降到5,180米以下。尽管驾驶舱内发生了激烈的争斗，但乘客们并未陷入恐慌。
According to data from the Flightradar website, the aircraft suddenly dropped from nearly 10,360m at 0521 GMT to less than 5,180m a minute later. But there was no “hysteria” among passengers, Italie noted, even as fighting erupted near the cockpit for control over the aircraft.
“前排的乘客们及时接过了飞机的控制权，”伊塔利通过视频通话告诉法新社。飞机最终在沙特阿拉伯的塔布克（Tabuk）安全降落。
“The other passengers from the front took over control,” he told AFP via video call from Saudi Arabia’s Tabuk, where the plane landed safely following what passengers described as a violent attempt by one pilot to kill the other.

“副驾驶试图谋杀飞行员，实际上是在对飞机实施自杀式袭击，”她通过电话告诉记者。电话是由她在特拉维夫附近的本-古里安机场等候的母亲接听的。
“The co-pilot tried to murder the pilot and basically carry out a suicide attack on the plane,” she told reporters by speaker phone held up by her mother, who was waiting at Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv.
“飞机当时真的处于坠毁的边缘，多亏了许多人的机智和勇敢，他们成功控制了副驾驶并制服了他，”她说。
“It was really on the way to crashing, and it was simply the resourcefulness of many people who took control of the co-pilot and neutralised him,” she said.
“还有一位医生提供了急救，其他人则照顾了两位受伤的人员。除了飞行员外，没有其他人受伤；但最令人担忧的还是飞机真的会坠毁——而这正是副驾驶的意图。”
“There was also a doctor who gave first aid, and people who treated both of them. Other than the pilot, there were no injuries, but the bigger fear was really a crash, which is exactly what he was trying to do.”
在一段被以色列社交媒体用户转发的飞机内部视频中，一名乘客（头部有伤口、鲜血直流）恳求救援，并表示他们正在飞往沙特阿拉伯。以色列与沙特阿拉伯没有外交关系。

“Anyone who can hear me, we need help. We are about to land in Tabuk, apparently in Saudi Arabia. An unknown area. All the passengers are safe and well, except for the pilot,” the man added. “We need help.”AFP
