-
Awaiting deadline 35% Immediate De-escalation & Normalization
The security situation rapidly stabilizes following intense international mediation. flydubai and relevant authorities announce a temporary suspension of flights to allow investigation, but then confirm resumption of limited, secure flights to Tel Aviv within the week. The immediate crisis ends, allowing communities to begin the process of returning to normal life.
Watch for: flydubai officially announces the resumption of limited, vetted flights to Israel · The UAE Ministry of Interior issues a statement confirming heightened security protocols have been met
-
Awaiting deadline 30% Sustained High Alert & Diplomatic Pressure
The investigation into the attack reveals evidence of state-level planning, prompting international condemnation. Key diplomatic figures from the US and EU visit the UAE to coordinate a joint security response and demand accountability. This pressure forces a temporary, highly regulated suspension of all direct flights until a security audit is completed.
Watch for: US State Department issues a formal statement demanding full transparency from UAE authorities · A joint press conference involving Israeli and UAE security officials is held
-
Awaiting deadline 20% Regional Security Breach (Counter-Intuitive)
Instead of remaining contained, the attack acts as a catalyst for broader regional instability. Unrelated extremist groups seize the opportunity to launch low-level, non-state attacks against Jewish institutions in the wider UAE/Gulf region, proving the threat is widespread and not isolated to the airline. This forces an emergency regional security council meeting.
Watch for: A security advisory is issued by a non-Gulf nation (e.g., Qatar or Egypt) regarding increased regional threats · News reports confirm multiple, unrelated incidents of vandalism or minor assaults on Jewish property outside the immediate flight path
-
Awaiting deadline 15% Escalation and Flight Cancellation
The initial investigation reveals that the attack was not isolated but part of a coordinated, larger pattern of aggression. In response, Israel decides it cannot guarantee the safety of its citizens in the UAE under current conditions and formally advises its citizens to evacuate the region. All flights to Israel remain indefinitely suspended.
Watch for: The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs issues a public advisory advising citizens to leave the UAE · flydubai formally announces the indefinite suspension of all flights to Israel
