Unknown groups attempted to take control of the communications system of an Israeli El Al plane flying over Somalia. A message about this appeared on the radio station blood February 18.
The document states that the El Al plane was heading from Thailand’s Phuket island to Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv.

According to the station, this is not the first such incident on Israeli airlines that flew to Thailand last week.
Representatives of Israel’s national carrier noted that Somali aviation authorities warned of possible communication disruptions, so pilots were forced to use alternative means of communication to ensure flight safety.
