2 incidents today:

LY375 TLV-LIS operated by a 739 (4X-EHI) returned to TLV about an hour after take off due to a pressurisation issue. Plane circled over the sea for quite a while, presumably dumping fuel.

Second incident was on a LY2373 TLV-SXF also operates by a 739 (4X-EHA) when a passenger thought it would be a good idea to smoke in the toilet, and then go wild when told off.
Plane was diverted to ATH, where the passenger was removed, and the flight later continues to Berlin.

Never a dull moment...
