AGP Executive Report
Last update: 7 hours agoAviation Security & Public Health: Oman’s role in the Flydubai cockpit attack probe remains in focus after reports say the Omani co-pilot, Hamam al-Hammami, was previously barred from flying in Oman over alleged extremist views, while the UAE-led investigation continues into how he was hired and what links—if any—he had; the incident involved an axe attack on Indian captain Smit Machchhar, who opened the cockpit door and helped prevent a crash, with multiple countries now examining background and screening failures. Diplomacy & Health Cooperation: In Muscat, Oman’s Foreign Minister received credentials of the WHO Representative, Dr. Asmus Hammerich, and welcomed new ambassador-designates from Jordan and Türkiye, reaffirming cooperation on health efforts. Regional Tensions: Iran rejected claims tying it to the Flydubai incident, calling allegations a “false flag” narrative as the investigation widens. Local Oman Innovation: Oman’s transport and civil aviation authorities invited proposals for an Advanced Air Mobility live demo sandbox (Dec 6–10), with trials planned across healthcare, security, agriculture and air taxis.
