Israel's President Isaac Herzog said he would recommend heroism awards for four Israeli passengers who he said "averted a major disaster" on Wednesday, when one of the pilots stabbed another and apparently tried to crash the plane.
The passengers, together with crew members, overpowered the attacker to land the plane safely.
