Flydubai attacker began a 'drift towards extremism and terrorism' in Australia, UAE says

The Omani co-pilot who allegedly attempted to hijack a Flydubai plane started a "drift towards extremism and terrorism" while studying in Australia, United Arab Emirates officials say. UAE Attorney-General Hamad Saif al-Shamsi also alleged the pilot - widely named as Hamam al-Hammami - was last week trying to crash the plane into Tel Aviv's airport in a "suicide attack".

Melbourne university RMIT earlier confirmed the pilot had studied there but left before completing his engineering qualification.
