TODAY'S GERMAN TEXT

Zahnarzt hilft verletztem Piloten nach einem Angriff im Flugzeug

Der Zahnarzt drückte auf die Wunden des Kapitäns, damit das Blut nicht weiter floss.

Ein Co-Pilot griff den Kapitän auf dem Flug mit einem Messer an.

Andere Passagiere hielten den Verdächtigen fest und banden seine Hände mit Kopfhörern zusammen.

Ein anderer Passagier brachte das Flugzeug wieder in eine gerade Lage.

Das Flugzeug landete in Saudi-Arabien, und die Passagiere bekamen medizinische Hilfe.
