Israeli Ambassador to India Reuven Azar has warned of a possible new wave of Islamist terror attacks, saying terrorist groups are developing capabilities faster than governments and security agencies. Speaking to India Today, Azar linked his concerns to the recent flydubai cockpit attack involving Indian pilot Smit Machchhar. He said Hamas had inspired terrorist groups in India’s neighbourhood and cited the 2025 Pahalgam attack as an example. Azar stressed that investigators have not yet established whether the flydubai incident was a lone-wolf attack. He also praised Machchhar and passengers for preventing a major disaster.
