WorldFake BBC report falsely implicates Indian passenger and pilot in Flydubai hijacking attempt

Fake videos are circulating after an attempted hijacking on a Flydubai flight between Dubai and Tel Aviv. One AI-generated deepfake falsely links an Indian passenger to the incident and to stabbed pilot Smit Machchhar, although the BBC never aired the report. Another clip was misrepresented and was filmed in Dubai rather than at the incident location.
