Apparently talking things out wasn’t an option as an older male passenger is seen in the above video footage slapping a younger male passenger before other passengers separated the two. According to Mirror, the older passenger was arguing with his wife on a Middle East Airlines Flight when a flight attendant tried to intervene but was assaulted. Within moments a male passenger tried to help the flight attendant but he too was slapped by the older passenger.
The flight was bound to London from Beirut however it had to make an emergency landing in Istanbul where the older male passenger was taken into custody.
