El Al Flight LY1 from Tel Aviv to John F. Kennedy Airport made an emergency landing in Norway this morning after a passenger suffered a heart attack.
There were approximately 200 frum Jews on the flight.
Shaya Bernath of Hatzolah came to the rescue of the heart attack victim and, upon landing in Norway, the patient was rushed to a nearby hospital.
The flight resumed and is scheduled to land at JFK at about 2:30 p.m. EST, with many hours to spare before Shabbos.
