According to the Israeli Prime Minister, one pilot stabbed another pilot and intended to cause a flight from the United Arab Emirates to Israel to crash.

據以色列總理所述,一名飛行員刺傷了另一名飛行員,並意圖使一架自阿拉伯聯合大公國飛往以色列的航班墜毀。

The passengers on board — among them no small number of Israeli nationals — were seized with dread and terror for their very lives as the flydubai airliner abruptly lost half its flying altitude in the space of roughly a minute.

機上乘客——其中不乏以色列籍人士——於杜拜航空客機在約莫一分鐘內驟失半數飛行高度之際,無不為自身性命感到驚惶恐懼。

In view of Israel's apprehension that a hijacking might be imminent, fighter jets were scrambled posthaste; in the interim, a passenger and a crew member stormed the cockpit and subdued the assailant, while the remaining crew members seized control of the aircraft, and the plane ultimately landed safely in Saudi Arabia.

鑑於以色列憂慮恐有劫機之虞,遂緊急出動戰鬥機;其間一名乘客與一名機組人員闖入駕駛艙制伏攻擊者,其餘機組人員則奪取飛機之控制權,飛機終究安全降落於沙烏地阿拉伯。

To date, the motive behind Wednesday's attack remains utterly opaque and shrouded in obscurity.

迄今為止,關於週三這起攻擊事件背後之動機,仍舊撲朔迷離、晦暗難明。

This harrowing in-flight incident coincided with the days immediately preceding the one-year anniversary of the October 7, 2023, assault on Israel that ignited the Gaza war.

這起駭人聽聞的航班事件,恰逢2023年10月7日以色列遭襲、進而引爆加薩戰爭屆滿週年紀念日的前數日。

The affair has once again stirred profound public anxiety about aviation safety and trained the spotlight of public discourse on a deeply unsettling proposition: have pilots come to pose a grave threat to the safety of the flying public at large?

此事再度激起了公眾對飛航安全的深切憂慮,並將輿論焦點凝聚於一個令人惴惴不安的命題之上:飛行員是否已然對廣大飛航乘客之安全構成重大威脅?

The following is what we know, and what we do not know, about what transpired aboard flydubai Flight FZ1073:

以下即為我們就杜拜航空FZ1073航班上所發生之事所掌握的已知與未知:

The distress call was issued at 8:44 a.m. local time, by which point roughly two and a half hours had elapsed since the departure of the flight, which was carrying approximately 170 passengers from Dubai to Tel Aviv.

求救呼叫於當地時間上午8時44分發出,彼時距這架載有約170名乘客、自杜拜飛往特拉維夫的航班起飛已約兩個半小時。

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu disclosed that the captain and the first officer had engaged in a physical altercation in the cockpit, after one of them had attempted to stab the other, causing the aircraft to crash.

以色列總理班傑明·納坦雅胡披露,機長與副機師於駕駛艙內爆發肢體衝突,此前其中一人曾圖謀刺傷對方,致使航空器墜毀。

The aircraft abruptly lost altitude—plummeting from 33,000 feet to 17,000 feet (equivalent to a descent from 10,000 metres to 5,100 metres) in the space of roughly one minute.

飛機驟然喪失高度——約莫一分鐘內自33,000英尺遽降至17,000英尺(相當於10,000公尺降至5,100公尺)。

Thereafter, the aircraft circled in airspace near the Jordanian border for approximately an hour before finally landing at Tabuk in Saudi Arabia.

其後,該機於約旦邊界附近空域盤旋,歷時約一小時,終降落於沙烏地阿拉伯之塔布克。

According to a statement issued by Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Tabuk, both pilots sustained injuries that necessitated hospital treatment.

根據塔布克親王蘇爾坦·本·阿卜杜勒阿齊茲國際機場發布之聲明,兩名飛行員均蒙受須住院治療之傷勢。

Netanyahu stated that Saudi Arabia had already apprehended one of the pilots.

納坦雅胡表示,沙烏地阿拉伯業已逮捕其中一名飛行員。

An aircraft carrying the passengers from that flight touched down in Israel on Wednesday night.

一架搭載該航班乘客之航機,業已於週三夜間著陸於以色列。

According to Netanyahu, relaying the account of a passenger with whom he had spoken, a passenger and a crew member managed to force their way into the cockpit, thereby enabling other crew members to enter and take control of the aircraft, landing it safely.

據納坦雅胡轉述一名曾與其交談之乘客所言,一名乘客與一名機組人員設法強行闖入駕駛艙,遂使其他機組人員得以進入並操縱飛機安全降落。

On all flights, cockpit doors remain locked during flight as a security precaution—a measure that became an industry standard in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, when hijackers forcibly breached the cockpits of four domestic flights in the United States.

所有航班的駕駛艙門於飛行期間皆基於安全考量而鎖閉——此一措施在2001年9月11日攻擊事件後確立為業界標準;彼時劫機者強行闖入美國四架國內航班之駕駛艙。

To date, it remains impossible to ascertain precisely how the passenger and crew member managed to gain access to the flydubai cockpit, given that the aircraft door had been reinforced to withstand forcible intrusion.

迄今尚無從確知該名乘客與機組人員究竟是如何得以進入杜拜航空駕駛艙的,蓋因飛機艙門業經強化處理,以抵禦外力破壞入侵。

The central question surrounding this incident is how those on board — indeed, even the pilot himself — managed to carry a knife onto the aircraft.

圍繞此事件的核心疑問在於,機上人員——乃至飛行員本人——究竟是如何得以將一把刀具攜帶登機的。

At present, the exact dimensions of the knife used in the attack remain unavailable.

目前,攻擊行動中所使用刀具的確切尺寸仍付之闕如。

Pilots are subject to rigorous screening at all airport security checkpoints, including passage through metal detectors.

飛行員於所有機場安檢關卡均須接受嚴密篩檢,其中包括通過金屬探測器。

It is likewise standard operating procedure for airlines to conduct background checks on their pilots covering criminal and employment records as well as physical and mental health, and to subject them to intelligence and security screening.

航空公司對其所屬飛行員實施犯罪與就業紀錄、身體與心理健康之背景審查,並令其接受情報與安全篩檢,亦屬標準作業程序。

Israel has long been renowned for maintaining one of the most stringent aviation security regimes in the world.

以色列素以全球最嚴苛的航空安全措施之一著稱。

Passengers travelling on flights bound for Israel, having cleared standard airport security screening, are frequently taken aside for questioning and baggage searches.

搭乘飛往以色列航班之乘客,於通過常規機場安檢後,往往遭引至一旁接受盤詰及行李搜查。

Whether pilots operating Flydubai flights are likewise subjected to screening of comparable rigour remains a matter of conjecture.

杜拜航空航班之飛行員是否亦歷經同等嚴格之篩檢,目前尚無定論。

Instances in which aviation security protocols fail utterly are exceedingly rare.

航空安全規程徹底失效之情境實屬鳳毛麟角。

In 2015, the co-pilot of Germanwings Flight 9525 barred the captain from the cockpit and then deliberately flew the aircraft into a mountainside, causing all 150 people on board to perish.

2015年,德國之翼9525航班之副機師將機長拒於駕駛艙外,繼而蓄意令航機撞向山腰,致使機上150人悉數罹難。
