The accident of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 96 1.

The passenger plane that crashed was a Boeing 767-260. When the plane entered Kenya, three Ethiopians broke into the cab and hijacked the passenger plane. The special report said, "One of them read some unknown words in the corridor, followed by two companions." The report also pointed out that the man was young (about 20 years old), inexperienced, mentally deficient and drunk. [ 1]

The man claimed to have a bomb, threatened to blow up a passenger plane and used the public address system to call himself anti-Ethiopian government. He is seeking political asylum and has just been released from prison. The investigating authorities later pointed out that the "bomb" was actually an unopened bottle of wine.

After the hijacker broke into the cab, he first injured the co-pilot and then asked to fly the plane to Australia. The captain tried to explain to the hijackers that the plane would crash halfway because of lack of fuel, but the hijackers obviously didn't believe it. The captain contacted the air traffic control center, and the air traffic controller tried to tell the hijacker that the plane would crash at sea, but the hijacker refused to negotiate. So the captain did not sail for Australia, but continued to sail along the African coast. But the hijackers found that the plane was not sailing at sea, and land could be seen outside, so they forced the pilot to fly eastward. The pilot secretly sailed to the Comoros island between Madagascar and the African continent.
