据报道,阿联酋航空一架航班上大多数乘客正计划对该航空公司以及阿联酋和以色列的交通部提起集体诉讼,该航班的阿曼籍副驾驶曾试图撞毁飞机。
The majority passengers on a Flydubai flight that its Omani co-pilot tried to crash are reportedly planning a class action suit against the airline and the transportation ministries of the United Arab Emirates and Israel.
在这趟航班上,阿曼籍袭击者与受伤的印度籍英雄机长在空中驾驶舱内发生搏斗,后者成功阻止了坠机。
The flight saw a midair cockpit brawl betweem the Omani attacker and the wounded Indian hero pilot, who prevented the crash.
乘客寻求数亿美元赔偿 据《以色列时报》援引《Calcalist》商业新闻媒体报道,这起正在准备中的诉讼预计将就上个月阿曼籍副驾驶哈马德·阿尔-哈马米在迪拜飞往特拉维夫的航班上刺伤印度籍机长斯米特·马查尔一事,寻求数亿美元的赔偿。
Flydubai passengers seek hundreds of millions in damages The suit, which is being readied, is poised to seek hundreds of millions of dollars in damages for the incident in which the Omani co-pilot, identified as Hammam al-Hammami, stabbed Indian Captain Smit Machchhar between Dubai and Tel Aviv last month, Times of Israel reported, citing Calcalist business news outlet.
机上174名乘客中约有100人已签署参与诉讼,并成立了乘客委员会管理案件。该委员会将由茨维卡·马内斯领导,他是制服袭击者的以色列人之一。乘客可能获得多少赔偿?
About 100 passengers of the 174 onboard the plane have signed on the legal suit and have appointed a passenger committee to manage the case. The committee will be led by Tzvika Manes, one of the Israelis who took down the attacker. How much compensation could passengers receive?
希伯来语媒体报道称,因袭击事件,预计每位乘客将获得约20万至25万美元的赔偿。若所有174名乘客均获赔偿,总额将高达4350万美元,不含法律费用。
Reports in Hebrew media stated that passengers are expected to win about $200,000 to $250,000 each in compensation due to the attack. If all 174 passengers are compensated, the total amount would run up to $43.5 million, excluding legal fees.
阿联酋和以色列当局面临审查 这起诉讼是阿联酋航空乘客试图追究当局责任的最新尝试之一。阿联酋当局称,阿曼籍副驾驶意图在9月30日劫持FZ1073航班并将其撞向以色列本-古里安机场航站楼,实施自杀式袭击。然而,阿联酋检察总长哈马德·赛义夫·阿尔·沙姆西在声明中似乎并未指责阿联酋航空有任何过错。
UAE and Israeli authorities face scrutiny The suit is one of the latest attempts by the flydubai passengers to hold the authorities accountable for an incident wherein the UAE authorities have said the Omani co-pilot had intended to seize and crash the FZ1073 plane into a terminal at Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport on September 30 in a suicide attack. However, the UAE’s Attorney General, Hamad Saif al Shamsi, in a statement, didn’t appear to implicate flydubai in any wrongdoing.
阿联酋检察官认为,此次被挫败的袭击受到2001年9月11日美国遭受袭击的启发。事件发生后,负责监管民航协议的以色列交通部受到审查。阿联酋当局仍在继续调查此次袭击。
The UAE prosecutors believe that the thwarted attack was inspired by the September 11, 2001, attacks on the US. After the incident, Israel’s Transportation Ministry, which oversees civil aviation protocols, has come under scrutiny. The attack continues to be investigated by the UAE authorities.
