US intelligence finds no conclusive Iran link in Flydubai attack; Trump blames Tehran

US Vice President JD Vance said Monday that US intelligence has not found conclusive evidence linking Iran to the attempted hijacking of a Flydubai flight, while President Donald Trump said he personally believes Tehran was responsible. Vance deferred to intelligence officials on the matter, stating he had not seen anything conclusive, as the UAE leads the investigation into the September 30 attack on Flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv. The Omani co-pilot allegedly attacked the Indian captain with a crash axe before being restrained by passengers. The probe is examining how the co-pilot, previously barred from flying in Oman over extremist concerns, was cleared for the flight. Investigators are also exploring possible links to larger organizations, though early indications suggest he may have acted alone.
