阿拉伯联合酋长国总检察长办公室周四表示，已下令对前一天发生的一起疑似劫机并企图坠毁迪拜航空（flydubai）飞往以色列航班的事件展开调查。
United Arab Emirates ' chief prosecutor's office said on Thursday that it had ordered an investigation into the apparent attempt to hijack and possibly crash a flydubai flight to Israel a day earlier.
阿联酋国家通讯社（WAM）报道称，“调查组已针对该事件开展工作”，并将致力于确定“该事件与任何恐怖活动或意图的关联程度”。调查还将查明这是否是一起涉及其他参与者的预谋策划事件，还是单一肇事者的个人行为。
The state news agency WAM said that "the investigation team has launched its work into the incident already" and that the probe would seek to determine "the degree to which [the incident] was linked to any terrorist activity or intent." The case will also seek to establish whether it was a pre-meditated and planned incident involving other actors or the work of a lone perpetrator.
以色列国防部长伊斯雷尔·卡茨（Israel Katz）称这起飞往特拉维夫的航班紧急事件为一起被挫败的“圣战恐怖袭击企图”。
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz had called the emergency on the flight to Tel Aviv "an attempted jihadist terror attack" that was thwarted.
乘客们描述称，副驾驶刺伤机长后，飞机进入急剧俯冲状态，疑似企图坠毁客机，乘客们随后冲进驾驶舱协助机长。
Passengers described rushing the cockpit to assist the pilot after he was stabbed by his copilot, who then put the plane into a steep dive in an apparent attempt to crash the airliner.
除了在驾驶舱内参与制服歹徒的乘客受了轻微割伤和擦伤外，其余乘客（绝大多数为以色列人）均未受伤。为什么阿联酋对此案拥有管辖权？阿联酋司法当局对该事件拥有管辖权。
Aside from minor curts and bruises among those who intervened in the cockpit, the passengers — the vast majority of whom were Israeli — were all unhurt. Why does the UAE have jurisdiction in the case? Judicial authorities in the UAE have jurisdiction over the incident.
声明指出，这是因为该飞机在阿联酋注册并悬挂阿联酋国旗，并补充称阿联酋法律适用于在机上犯下的罪行，“即使这些罪行发生在阿联酋领土之外”。在这一清晨发生的安保事件中，飞机大部分时间位于沙特阿拉伯北部上空，追踪数据显示，飞机曾短暂进入约旦领空，随后掉头在附近的沙特阿拉伯塔布克机场紧急降落。
This is because the aircraft ised in the UAE and flies under its flag, the statement said, adding that UAE law applied to crimes committed on board "even if they occur outside the country's territory." The plane was over northern Saudi Arabia for the majority of the early-morning security incident, with tracking data suggesting it briefly crossed into Jordan before turning around to make an emergency landing at the nearby Tabuk Airport in Saudi Arabia.
迪拜航空乘客讲述劫机企图后的惊魂时刻。观看此视频，以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡在接受福克斯新闻电视采访时也曾表示，阿联酋极有可能主导任何相关调查。
FlyDubai passengers recount terror after hijacking attempt To view this video, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had also indicated the likelihood of the UAE leading any investigation in a TV interview with Fox News.
内塔尼亚胡表示：“这名袭击者飞行员……目前正在沙特阿拉伯接受调查。我认为他会被带回阿联酋，也就是他出发的地方，或者至少是他起飞的地方。我们将持续关注，并可能参与此次调查。”
"The attacking pilot is ... now being investigated in Saudi Arabia. I think he'll be taken to the Emirates, where he comes from, or at least where he left, where he flew off from, and we'll be following and possibly also participating in this investigation," Netanyahu said.
这名阿曼籍副驾驶的身份尚未公开，其动机也不明确。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，根据与内塔尼亚胡的讨论，他认为嫌疑人“可能是一名恐怖分子，也可能是一个疯子”。
The Omani copilot's identity has not been made public as yet and his motive is not clear. US President Donald Trump said that based on a discussion with Netanyahu, he understood that the suspect was "perhaps a terrorist or perhaps a whack-job."
当被问及在海湾冲突背景下伊朗是否参与其中时，内塔尼亚胡表示“现在下结论还为时过早”。以色列总统赫尔佐格提名四名乘客授予总统勋章。以色列总统艾萨克·赫尔佐格计划提名四名协助制服袭击者的乘客，授予他们总统平民勇气勋章。
Asked about the possibility of Iranian involvement amid the conflict in the Gulf Netanyahu said "it's too early to say." Israel's Herzog nominates 4 passengers for presidential medal Israeli President Isaac Herzog plans to nominate four passengers who helped overpower the attacker for the Presidential Medal for Civil Courage.
周三深夜，当这四名乘客搭乘替换航班抵达本·古里安机场时，赫尔佐格和内塔尼亚胡与他们进行了交谈。
Herzog and Netanyahu spoke with the passengers when they arrived at Ben Gurion Airport on a replacement flight late on Wednesday.
赫尔佐格公布了这四名乘客的姓名，分别是亚尼夫·哈尤恩（Yaniv Hayoun）、肖塔·穆萨耶夫（Shota Musayev）、兹维卡·马内斯（Zvika Manes）和阿萨夫·拉胡安（Asaf Rajuan）。
Herzog named the passengers as Yaniv Hayoun, Shota Musayev, Zvika Manes and Asaf Rajuan.
“你们冒着生命危险拯救了他人，避免了一场可怕的灾难，”赫尔佐格说。“今天，全世界都看到了以色列社会美丽而勇敢的一面。”该勋章是以色列授予平民的最高英雄主义奖项。勋章由赫尔佐格颁发，但通常提名人选由委员会正式选出。
"You put yourselves at risk to save others and prevented a terrible disater," Herzog said. "Today, the whole world saw the beautiful and courageous face of Israeli society." The medal is Israel's highest civilian award for heroism. Herzog confers the medal but typically nominees are formally chosen by a committee.
穆萨耶夫是一名牙医，他曾为受重伤的印度飞行员进行急救。他告诉赫尔佐格，机上的每个人都表现得非常勇敢。
Musayev, a dentist who administered first aid to the severely wounded Indian pilot, told Herzog everyone on board had acted courageously.
“我们在飞机上互相支持，抵达沙特阿拉伯后也是如此，我们像应该做的那样互相照顾，”他说。
"We supported one another on the plane and also when we arrived in Saudi Arabia, and we took care of each other as we should," he said.
印度机长斯米特·马查尔（Smit Machchhar）也获得了以色列总理内塔尼亚胡和印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪的高度赞扬。乘客们描述了机长如何在身受重伤的情况下击退袭击者，并设法打开驾驶舱门让乘客进入以协助他。印度驻利雅得大使馆周三表示，他目前在沙特的一家医院中，情况稳定。
The Indian captain, Smit Machchhar, has also received staunch praise from Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and from India's Narendra Modi. Passengers described how the pilot fought off his attacker despite his wounds and was able to open the cockpit door to let them in to aid him. He was in a stable condition in a Saudi hospital, India's Embassy in Riyadh said on Wednesday.
“在面对最严重的危险且身受重伤的情况下，他展现出了巨大的勇气和保护他人生命的坚定决心，”莫迪在网上表示。“他的英勇帮助挽救了数百人的生命，并避免了一场巨大的悲剧。”
"In the face of the gravest danger and despite being seriously injured, he showed immense courage and an unwavering resolve to proect the lives of others," Modi said online. "His valor helped save hundreds of lives and avert a great tragedy."
