关于一名飞行员如何设法将武器带上飞机，并在飞机在短短几秒内俯冲数千英尺之前刺伤同僚飞行员，目前仍存在诸多疑问。据乘客称，袭击者被制服，飞机随后在沙特阿拉伯进行了紧急降落。17岁学生阿维亚塔尔·阿莱维周三在接受NBC新闻采访时表示，他和其余乘客被空运至特拉维夫后说：“我们非常害怕，不知道会发生什么。”以下是我们对此次事件的了解，以及它距离酿成悲剧有多近。
Questions remain about how a pilot managed to sneak a weapon aboard a plane and stab his fellow pilot before it plunged thousands of feet in mere seconds. The attacker was thwarted, passengers said, and the plane made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia. “We were so scared. We didn’t know what was going to happen,” Aviatar Alevi, a 17-year-old student, told NBC News on Wednesday after he and the rest of the passengers were flown to Tel Aviv. Here is what we know about the incident and how close it came to resulting in tragedy.
乘客们看到了什么？阿莱维描述了航班上令人毛骨悚然的场景，人们“尖叫、奔跑、恐慌，还有血迹”。他说：“一开始，我以为飞机出了故障，但随后我开始听到关于刺伤事件的尖叫。”他补充说：“我们不知道会发生什么”，死亡的可能性“绝对是一个选项”。另一名70岁的乘客莫蒂·科恩·奥尔表示，他听到一名女子大喊“有人在驾驶舱里刺伤某人”，随后飞机“向地面俯冲”。
What did passengers see? Alevi described a harrowing scene aboard the flight, with people “screaming, running, panicking, blood.”“At the start, I thought it was a plane malfunction, but then I started hearing screaming about the stabbings,” he said. “We didn’t know what was going to happen,” he said, adding that the possibility of death “was definitely an option.”Another passenger, Motti Cohen Or, 70, said that he heard a woman shouting that “someone is stabbing someone in the cockpit” before the aircraft dived “toward the ground.”
亚尼夫·海尤恩身穿血染的T恤出现在镜头前，告诉摄像机他是进入驾驶舱并制服袭击飞行员的人之一。在乘客返回以色列后，本雅明·内塔尼亚胡总理在本-古里安机场感谢了海尤恩，他后来透露海尤恩是一名水管工。海尤恩告诉记者，还有另外三人参与了拯救飞机及机上人员的努力。这群人曾艰难地试图打开驾驶舱门。他说：“我抓住了袭击者，掐住他的脖子，首先把他拉了出来。”“我开始操控操纵杆。”
Yaniv Hayun was pictured in a bloody T-shirt telling cameras he had been among those to enter the cockpit and subdue the attacking pilot. At Ben Gurion Airport, after the passengers had returned to Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked Hayun, whom he later identified as a plumber. Three others helped in the effort to save the plane and those aboard, Hayun told reporters. The group struggled to open the cockpit door. “I grabbed the attacker, and choked him, pulled him out first,” he said. “I started pulling the controls.”
“感谢上帝，我们成功了。我们真的齐心协力，作为一个团队工作，”他说。“那是在恐惧和生死攸关的感觉之间。”他补充道：“我们必须赢。我们必须挺过去，最终获胜。”谁是这位英雄飞行员？
“Thank God, we pulled it off. We really put our heads together and worked as a team,” he said. “It was between fear and a sense of a do-or-die situation.”“We had to win. We had to pull through and come out on top,” he added. Who is the hero pilot?
印度飞行员斯米特·马奇哈尔（Smit Machchhar）被誉为英雄，以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡在X平台上发文称赞他“拯救了174人的生命，其中包括以色列公民和其他国家国民”。内塔尼亚胡在接受福克斯新闻采访时表示，尽管当时马奇哈尔流血严重，但他设法打开了驾驶舱门，让机组人员和乘客得以制服他的同事并重新控制了飞机。
Hailed as a hero, Indian pilot Smit Machchhar was credited by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on X for saving “the lives of 174 people, including Israeli citizens and other nationals.”Even though he was bleeding heavily, Machchhar managed to unlock the door to the cockpit, Netanyahu told Fox News, allowing crew members and passengers to subdue his colleague and regain control of the plane.
印度驻沙特阿拉伯大使馆在X平台上发文称，他已被送往飞机降落地的塔布克医院接受治疗，并“据报病情稳定”。
The Indian Embassy in Saudi Arabia said in a post on X that he was admitted to hospital in Tabuk, where the plane landed, and was “reported to be in stable condition.”
根据他的领英（LinkedIn）个人资料，马奇哈尔在加入迪拜航空（Flydubai）之前，曾在印度的香料航空（SpiceJet）工作了11年多。印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪也在社交媒体上对其实施了赞扬。该资料显示，他的飞行时间已超过9,750小时。
According to his LinkedIn profile, Machchhar, who was also praised on social media by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, worked with India’s SpiceJet airline for more than 11 years before joining Flydubai. He has logged more than 9,750 flying hours, the profile says.
该航校首席执行官菲利普·基恩（Philip Kean）对该国1News媒体表示，马奇哈尔于2008年开始在新西兰达尼丁市的“大陆航空”（Mainland Air）接受为期18个月的飞行员培训。基恩说，马奇哈尔作为一名学生“表现非常出色”，后来回到印度担任该校的招生人员。那名涉嫌袭击者的情况如何？
Machchhar trained as a pilot at Mainland Air in the New Zealand city of Dunedin for 18 months, beginning in 2008, the school’s CEO, Philip Kean, told the country’s 1News outlet. Machchhar “did very well” as a student and later returned to India where he worked as a recruiter for the school, Kean said. What about the alleged attacker?
关于这名嫌疑人的细节（包括他的姓名和身体状况）目前披露得很少。两名听取了该事件简报的美国高级执法官员告诉美国全国广播公司新闻（NBC News），调查人员称，开始刺伤另一名飞行员的飞行员来自阿曼。
Few details have been released about the alleged attacker, including his name and his condition. Two senior U.S. law enforcement officials briefed on the incident told NBC News that investigators say the pilot who began stabbing the other pilot is from Oman.
阿曼当局尚未对此发表评论，阿曼外交部以及其驻华盛顿大使馆也没有回应NBC新闻的置评请求。
Omani authorities have not commented and the Omani Foreign Ministry and the embassy in Washington did not respond to requests for comment from NBC News.
内塔尼亚胡表示，这名飞行员目前正在沙特阿拉伯接受调查，飞机降落后他已被拘留。内塔尼亚胡还表示，他相信该嫌疑人最终将被移交给阿拉伯联合酋长国。这究竟是不是一场袭击？
Netanyahu said the pilot was being investigated in Saudi Arabia, where he was detained after the flight landed. Netanyahu added that he believed he would eventually be taken to the United Arab Emirates. Was this an attack?
根据对调查早期结果的了解，一名美国高级官员和一名知悉调查情况的沙特阿拉伯官员对美国全国广播公司新闻网（NBC News）表示，这件事件越来越像是一起恐怖主义行为。不过，这名沙特官员谨慎地指出，调查仍处于早期阶段。该王国尚未就其调查发表任何官方声明。据该国国家通讯社周四报道，拥有迪拜航空（Flydubai）的阿拉伯联合酋长国也正在努力确定“该事件是否与任何恐怖主义活动或目的有关，或者是否涉及事先的策划或指使”。
Based on the early results of the investigation, it increasingly looks like this was an act of terrorism, a senior American official and a Saudi Arabian official briefed on the investigation told NBC News. However, the Saudi official cautioned that the investigation was still in its early stages. No official statements on its investigations have been released by the kingdom. The United Arab Emirates, which owns Flydubai, is also trying to determine “whether the incident was linked to any terrorist activity or purpose, or involved prior planning or direction,” the country’s state news agency reported Thursday.
以色列国防部长伊斯RAEL·卡茨周三在未提供任何证据的情况下表示，初步信息表明，他所描述的那名恐怖分子飞行员旨在让飞机坠毁。内塔尼亚胡将此描述为“一起严重的安全事件”。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三在椭圆形办公室发言时表示，他已就此事与内塔尼亚胡进行了“长时间的交谈”。他说：“看来副驾驶可能是一个恐怖分子，或者可能是一个疯子，他刺伤了飞行员。”伊朗是否参与其中？
Without providing any evidence, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said Wednesday that preliminary information indicated that the pilot whom he described as a terrorist aimed to crash the plane. Netanyahu described it as “a serious security incident.”Speaking in the Oval Office on Wednesday, President Donald Trump said he had spoken with Netanyahu “at length about this event.”“It seems as though the co-pilot was perhaps a terrorist or perhaps a whack job, and he stabbed the pilot,” he said. Was Iran involved?
一名知悉以色列调查情况的美国高级官员对美国全国广播公司新闻网表示，没有迹象表明伊朗直接参与或参与了此次袭击。以色列官方也没有暗示伊朗伊斯兰共和国是此次袭击的幕后黑手。两名以色列安全官员对美联社表示，以色列迄今尚未发现任何伊朗参与的迹象。这会改变美国航班的任何情况吗？国土安全部长马克韦恩·马林周三在新闻发布会上表示，对美国航空公司“没有可靠的威胁”。
There are no indications that Iran directed or was involved in the attack, a senior U.S. official briefed on the Israeli investigation told NBC News. And there have been no official suggestions from Israel that the Islamic Republic was behind the attack. Two Israeli security officials told The Associated Press that Israel had not identified any Iranian involvement so far. Does this alter anything for American flights? There are “no credible threats” to U.S. airlines, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told a news conference Wednesday.
但他表示，美国非常严肃对待所有此类事件，“我们继续审视我们现有的程序，并继续确保美国人民的安全”。还存在哪些疑问？
But he said the U.S. took every incident like this very seriously “and we continue to look at the procedures that we have in place, and continue to make sure the American people are safe.”What questions remain?
除了他的国籍之外，关于实施这起袭击的飞行员及其动机人们知之甚少。飞行员要经过严格的筛选，航空公司对其背景进行审查以及核查其犯罪和就业历史是标准程序。他们还要通过机场的金属探测器和安检点，因此目前尚不清楚他是如何将武器偷运上飞机的。内塔尼亚胡在接受福克斯新闻采访时表示，马奇哈显然是被刺伤或遭到斧头袭击。
Aside from his nationality, little is known about the pilot who carried out the attack or his motives for doing so. Pilots undergo rigorous screening and it is standard for airlines to vet their backgrounds and check their criminal and employment history. They also pass through metal detectors and checkpoints at airports, so it is unclear how he snuck a weapon aboard the plane. Netanyahu said in his interview with Fox News that Machchhar had apparently been stabbed or hit with an axe.
目前也尚不清楚事发时航班上是否有空中警察。沙特阿拉伯已发出警告，称现在对这起事件的责任归属下定论为时过早，以色列和阿联酋则已宣布对迪拜航空1073号航班上究竟发生了什么展开调查。
It also remains unclear whether air marshals were on board the flight at the time of the incident. Saudi Arabia has warned that it is too early to draw definitive conclusions about who was responsible for the incident, and Israel and the UAE have announced investigations into what exactly happened on Flydubai Flight 1073.
